Israel repenteth.
1
And the men of Kiriath-iearim
came, and fetcht vp
the Arke of the Lord,
and brought it into the
house of Abinadab in the
hill, and sanctified Eleazar his sonne,
to keepe the Arke of the Lord.
2
And it came to passe while the
Arke abode in Kiriath-iearim, that the
time was long: for it was twentie
yeeres: and all the house of Israel lamented
after the Lord.
3
¶ And Samuel spake vnto all the
house of Israel, saying, If ye doe returne
vnto the Lord with all your
hearts, then note put away the strange gods,
and note Ashtaroth from among you, and
prepare your hearts vnto the Lord,
and note serue him onely: ∧ he will deliuer
you out of the hand of the Philistines.
4
Then the children of Israel did
put away note Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and
serued the Lord onely.
5
And Samuel said, Gather all Israel
to Mizpeh, and I will pray for you
vnto the Lord.
6
And they gathered together to
Mizpeh, and drew water, and powred
it out before the Lord, and fasted on
that day, and said there, We haue sinned
against the Lord. And Samuel iudged
the children of Israel in Mizpeh.
7
And when the Philistines heard
that the children of Israel were gathered
together to Mizpeh, the lords of the
Philistines went vp against Israel:
and when the children of Israel heard
it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
8
And the children of Israel said to
Samuel, note Cease not to crie vnto the
Lord our God for vs, that he will
saue vs out of the hand of the Philistines.
9
¶ And Samuel tooke a sucking
lambe, and offered it for a burnt offering
wholly vnto the Lord; and Samuel
cried vnto the Lord for Israel,
and the Lord note heard him.
10
And as Samuel was offering
vp the burnt offering, the Philistines
drewe neere to battell against Israel:
but the Lord thundred with a great
thunder on that day vpon the Philistines,
and discomfited them, and they
were smitten before Israel.
11
And the men of Israel went out of
Mizpeh, and pursued the Philistines,
and smote them, vntill they came vnder
Bethcar.
Samuels sonnes.
12
Then Samuel tooke a stone, and
set it betweene Mizpeh and Shen,
and called the name of it note Eben-Ezer,
saying, Hitherto hath the Lord
helped vs.
13
¶ So the Philistines were subdued,
and they came no more into the coast
of Israel: and the hand of the Lord
was against the Philistines, all the
dayes of Samuel.
14
And the cities which the Philistines
had taken from Israel, were restored
to Israel, from Ekron euen vnto
Gath, and the coasts thereof did Israel
deliuer out of the hands of the Philistines:
and there was peace betweene
Israel and the Amorites.
15
And Samuel iudged Israel all
the dayes of his life.
16
And he went from yeere to yeere
note in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and
Mizpeh, and iudged Israel in all those
places.
17
And his returne was to Ramah:
for there was his house: and there hee
iudged Israel, and there hee built an
altar vnto the Lord.
