1 Samuel 7:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And the men of Israel went from Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them until they came under Beth Car.
12 Then Samuel took a stone, and pitched it between Mizpah and [a]Shen, and called the name thereof Ebenezer, and he said, Hitherto hath the Lord helped us.
13 ¶ So the Philistines were brought under, and they came no more again into the coasts of Israel: and the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
