1 Samuel 7:12-14
Revised Standard Version
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.” 13 So the Philistines were subdued and did not again enter the territory of Israel. And the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel. 14 The cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron to Gath; and Israel rescued their territory from the hand of the Philistines. There was peace also between Israel and the Amorites.
