11. And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, and drove them back as far as below Beth Car.
12. Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far the Lord has helped us.”
13. So the Philistines were subdued, and they did not come anymore into the territory of Israel. And the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
14. Then the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron to Gath; and Israel recovered its territory from the hands of the Philistines. Also there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
15. And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
16. He went from year to year on a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all those places.
17. But he always returned to Ramah, for his home was there. There he judged Israel, and there he built an altar to the Lord.
