4 So the Israelites threw away their statues of Baal and Ashtoreth. The Israelites served only the Lord.
5 Samuel said, “All Israel must meet at Mizpah. I will pray to the Lord for you.”
6 The Israelites met together at Mizpah. They got water and poured it out before the Lord. In this way they began a time of fasting. They did not eat any food that day, and they confessed their sins. They said, “We have sinned against the Lord.” So Samuel served as a judge of Israel at Mizpah.
