1 Samuel 7:8-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 7
8
So the sons of Israel said to Samuel, 'Do not stop crying out to the
Lord
our God for us, that He will save us from the hand of the Philistines!'
9
Samuel took a nursing lamb and offered it as a whole burnt offering to the
Lord
; and Samuel cried out to the
Lord
for Israel, and the
Lord
answered him.
10
Now Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, and the Philistines advanced to battle Israel. But the
Lord
thundered with a great thunder on that day against the Philistines and confused them, so that they were struck down before Israel.
11
And the men of Israel came out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, and killed them as far as below Beth-car.
12
Then Samuel took a stone and placed it between Mizpah and Shen, and named it Ebenezer, saying, 'So far the
Lord
has helped us.'
King James Version
Chapter 7
8
And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the
Lord
our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.
9
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; and the
Lord
heard him.
10
And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but the
Lord
thundered with a great thunder on that day upon 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, until they came under Bethcar.
12
Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Hitherto hath the
Lord
helped us.

8
The Israelites said to Samuel, "Don’t stop crying out to the
Lord
our God for us, so that he will save us from the Philistines."
9
Then Samuel took a young lamb and offered it as a whole burnt offering to the
Lord
. He cried out to the
Lord
on behalf of Israel, and the
Lord
answered him.
10
Samuel was offering the burnt offering as the Philistines approached to fight against Israel. The
Lord
thundered loudly against the Philistines that day and threw them into such confusion that they were defeated by Israel.
11
Then the men of Israel charged out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines striking them down all the way to a place below Beth-car.
12
Afterward, Samuel took a stone and set it upright between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, explaining, "The
Lord
has helped us to this point."

8
Don’t stop pleading with the
Lord
our God to save us from the Philistines!' they begged Samuel.
9
So Samuel took a young lamb and offered it to the
Lord
as a whole burnt offering. He pleaded with the
Lord
to help Israel, and the
Lord
answered him.
10
Just as Samuel was sacrificing the burnt offering, the Philistines arrived to attack Israel. But the
Lord
spoke with a mighty voice of thunder from heaven that day, and the Philistines were thrown into such confusion that the Israelites defeated them.
11
The men of Israel chased them from Mizpah to a place below Beth-car, slaughtering them all along the way.
12
Samuel then took a large stone and placed it between the towns of Mizpah and Jeshanah. He named it Ebenezer (which means 'the stone of help'), for he said, 'Up to this point the
Lord
has helped us!'
