1 Samuel 7:12-17

12Then SamuelH8050 tookH3947 a stoneH68, and setH7760 it between MizpahH4709 and Shen, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of it Eben-ezer, sayingH559, Hitherto hath Jehovah helpedH5826 us. 13So the PhilistinesH6430 wereH1961 subduedH3665, and they cameH935 no more within the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478: and the handH3027 of Jehovah wasH1961 against the PhilistinesH6430 all the daysH3117 of SamuelH8050. 14And the citiesH5892 which the PhilistinesH6430 had takenH3947 from IsraelH3478 were restoredH7725 to IsraelH3478, from EkronH6138 even unto GathH1661; and the borderH1366 thereof did IsraelH3478 deliverH5337 out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430. And there wasH1961 peaceH7965 between IsraelH3478 and the AmoritesH567.

15And SamuelH8050 judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 all the daysH3117 of his life. 16And he wentH1980 from yearH8141 to yearH8141 in circuit to Beth-el, and GilgalH1537, and MizpahH4709; and he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 in all those placesH4725. 17And his returnH8666 was to RamahH7414, for there was his houseH1004; and there he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478: and he builtH1129 there an altarH4196 unto Jehovah.
