11. And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines and smote them as far as below Beth-car.
12. Then Samuel took a stone and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and he called the name of it Ebenezer [stone of help], saying, Heretofore the Lord has helped us.
13. So the Philistines were subdued and came no more into Israelite territory. And the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
14. The cities the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron to Gath, and Israel rescued [the cities'] territory from the Philistines. There was peace also between Israel and the Amorites.
15. And Samuel judged Israel all his days.
16. And he went from year to year on a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and was judge for Israel in all those places.
17. Then he would return to Ramah, for his home was there; there he judged Israel, and there he built an altar to the Lord.
