1 Samuel 7:6 BBE

⁴  So the children of Israel gave up the worship of Baal and Astarte, and became worshippers of the Lord only.

⁵  Then Samuel said, Let all Israel come to Mizpah and I will make prayer to the Lord for you.

⁶  So they came together to Mizpah, and got water, draining it out before the Lord, and they took no food that day, and they said, We have done evil against the Lord. And Samuel was judge of the children of Israel in Mizpah.

⁷  Now when the Philistines had news that the children of Israel had come together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And the children of Israel, hearing of it, were full of fear.

⁸  And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Go on crying to the Lord our God for us to make us safe from the hands of the Philistines.
