*
And Samuel took a sucking lamb ,
and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto the LORD :
and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel Yisra #
el #;
and the LORD heard him .
*
And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering ,
the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel Yisra #
el #:
but the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines ,
and discomfited them ;
and they were smitten before Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
And the men of Israel went out of Mizpeh ,
and pursued the Philistines ,
and smote them ,
until they came under Bethcar Beyth .
*
Then Samuel took a stone ,
and set it between Mizpeh and Shen ,
and called the name of it Ebenezer #
Eben ha -#
ezer #,
saying ,
Hitherto hath the LORD helped us .
