1 Samuel 7:8-12
8Then the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 to SamuelH8050, “1Do not ceaseH2790 to cryH2199 to the LordH3068 our GodH430 for us, that He may saveH3467 us from the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.” 9SamuelH8050 tookH3947 2a sucklingH2461 lambH2924 and offeredH5927 it for a wholeH3632 burntH5930 offeringH5930 to the LordH3068; and SamuelH8050 criedH2199 to the LordH3068 for IsraelH3478 and 3the LordH3068 answeredH6030 him. 10Now SamuelH8050 was offeringH5927 up the burntH5930 offeringH5930, and the PhilistinesH6430 drewH5066 nearH5066 to battleH4421 against IsraelH3478. But 4the LordH3068 thunderedH7481 with a greatH1419 5thunderH6963 on that dayH3117 againstH5921 the PhilistinesH6430 and 6confusedH2000 them, so that they were 7routedH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478. 11The menH376 of IsraelH3478 wentH3318 out of MizpahH4709 and pursuedH7291 the PhilistinesH6430, and struckH5221 them downH5221 as farH5704 as belowH4480H8478 Beth-carH1033.
12Then SamuelH8050 8tookH3947 a stoneH68 and setH7760 it betweenH996 MizpahH4709 and ShenH8129, and namedH7121H8034 it 9EbenezerH72, sayingH559, “ThusH2008 farH5704 the LordH3068 has helpedH5826 us.”
