1 Samuel 7:10-12
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
10 As Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to attack Israel; but the Lord thundered with a mighty voice that day against the Philistines and threw them into confusion; and they were routed before Israel. 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 up between Mizpah and Jesha′nah,[a] and called its name Ebene′zer;[b] for he said, “Hitherto the Lord has helped us.”
