1 Samuel 7:2--15:35
And it came to pass, while
<03117>
<03117>
the ark
<0727>
<0727>
in Kirjathjearim
<07157>_,
<07157>_,
that the time
<03117>
<03117>
for it was twenty
<06242>
<06242>
years
<08141>_:
<08141>_:
and all the house
<01004>
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
after
<0310>
<0310>
the LORD
<03068>_.
<03068>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
unto all the house
<01004>
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
<03478>_,
unto the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
with all your hearts
<03824>_,
<03824>_,
the strange
<05236>
<05236>
gods
<0430>
<0430>
and Ashtaroth
<06252>
<06252>
from among

<03068>_,
you out of the hand
<03027>
<03027>
of the Philistines

<06430>_.
Then the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>

<01168>
<01168>

<06252>_,
<06252>_,
the LORD

to Mizpeh
<04709>_,
<04709>_,
water
<04325>_,
<04325>_,
before
<06440>
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
on that day
<03117>_,
<03117>_,
against the LORD
<03068>_.
<03068>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
in Mizpeh
<04708>_.
<04708>_.
And when the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
that the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>

<04708>_,
<04708>_,
the lords

<05633>
of the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
against Israel
<03478>_.
<03478>_.
And when the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
of
<06440>
<06440>
the Philistines
<06430>_.
<06430>_.
And the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
to Samuel
<08050>_,
<08050>_,
unto the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
our God
<0430>
<0430>
us out of the hand
<03027>
<03027>
of the Philistines
<06430>_.
{Cease...: Heb. Be not silent from us from crying}<06430>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
a
<0259>
<0259>
sucking
<02461>
<02461>
lamb
<02924>_,
<02924>_,
[it for] a burnt offering
<05930>
<05930>
wholly
<03632>
<03632>
unto the LORD
<03068>_:
<03068>_:
and Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
unto the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
for Israel
<03478>_;
<03478>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
him. {heard: or, answered}<03068>
And as Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
the burnt offering
<05930>_,
<05930>_,
the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
to battle
<04421>
<04421>
against Israel
<03478>_:
<03478>_:
but the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
with a great
<01419>
<01419>
thunder
<06963>
<06963>
on that day
<03117>
<03117>
upon the Philistines
<06430>_,
<06430>_,
before
<06440>
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_.
<03478>_.
And the men
<0582>
<0582>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
of Mizpeh
<04709>_,
<04709>_,
the Philistines
<06430>_,
<06430>_,
them, until [they came] under Bethcar
<01033>_.
<01033>_.
Then Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
a
<0259>
<0259>
stone
<068>_,
<068>_,
[it] between Mizpeh
<04709>
<04709>
and Shen
<08129>_,
<08129>_,
the name
<08034>
<08034>
of it Ebenezer
<072>_,
<072>_,
Hitherto hath the LORD
<03068>
us. {Ebenezer: that is, The stone of help}<03068>
So the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
into the coast
<01366>
<01366>
of Israel
<03478>_:
<03478>_:
and the hand
<03027>
<03027>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
was against the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
all the days
<03117>
<03117>
of Samuel
<08050>_.
<08050>_.
And the cities
<05892>
<05892>
which the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
from Israel
<03478>
<03478>
to Israel
<03478>_,
<03478>_,
from Ekron
<06138>
<06138>
even unto Gath
<01661>_;
<01661>_;
and the coasts
<01366>
<01366>
thereof did Israel
<03478>
<03478>
out of the hands
<03027>
<03027>
of the Philistines
<06430>_.
<06430>_.
And there was peace
<07965>
<07965>
between Israel
<03478>
<03478>
and the Amorites
<0567>_.
<0567>_.
from
<01767>
<01767>
year
<08141>
<08141>
to year
<08141>
<08141>
to Bethel
<01008>_,
<01008>_,
and Gilgal
<01537>_,
<01537>_,
and Mizpeh
<04709>_,
<04709>_,
Israel
<03478>
<03478>
in all those places
<04725>_.
{in circuit: Heb. and he circuited}<04725>_.
And his return
<08666>
<08666>
[was] to Ramah
<07414>_;
<07414>_;
for there [was] his house
<01004>_;
<01004>_;
Israel
<03478>_;
<03478>_;
an altar
<04196>
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>_.
<03068>_.
Now the name
<08034>
<08034>
was Joel
<03100>_;
<03100>_;
and the name
<08034>
<08034>
of his second
<04932>_,
<04932>_,
Abiah
<029>_:
<029>_:
in Beersheba
<0884>_.
<0884>_.
And his sons
<01121>
<01121>
not in his ways
<01870>_,
<01870>_,
after
<0310>
<0310>
lucre
<01215>_,
<01215>_,
bribes
<07810>_,
<07810>_,
judgment
<04941>_.
<04941>_.
But the thing
<01697>
<01697>
Samuel
<08050>_,
<08050>_,
us a king
<04428>
<04428>

<08050>
<08050>
unto the LORD
<03068>_.
{displeased: Heb. was evil in the eyes of}<03068>_.
According to all the works
<04639>
<04639>
since the day
<03117>
<03117>
out of Egypt
<04714>
<04714>
even unto this day
<03117>_,
<03117>_,
other
<0312>
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
they also unto thee.<0430>_,
unto their voice
<06963>_:
<06963>_:
howbeit
<0389>
<0389>

<04941>
of the king
<04428>
over them. {hearken...: or, obey} {howbeit...: or, notwithstanding when thou hast solemnly protested against them then thou shalt}<04428>
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
all the words

<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
unto the people
<05971>
<05971>
of him a king
<04428>_.
<04428>_.
This will be the manner
<04941>
<04941>
of the king

in that day

<03117>
because

<04428>
you; and the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
you in that day
<03117>_.
<03117>_.
Nevertheless the people
<05971>
<05971>
the voice
<06963>
<06963>
of Samuel
<08050>_;
<08050>_;
Nay; but we will have a king
<04428>
over us;<04428>
That we also may be like all the nations
<01471>_;
<01471>_;
and that our king
<04428>
<04428>
before
<06440>
<06440>
our battles
<04421>_.
<04421>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
all the words
<01697>
<01697>
of the people
<05971>_,
<05971>_,
them in the ears
<0241>
<0241>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
<03068>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
to Samuel
<08050>_,
<08050>_,
unto their voice

<04428>_.
And Samuel

Now there was a man
