1The men of Kiriath Jearim came and took the LORD’s ark, and brought it into Abinadab’s house on the hill, and consecrated Eleazar his son to keep the LORD’s ark.
2Angraeng ih thingkhong loe saning pumphae karoek to, Kiriath Jearim ah oh naah, Israel kaminawk boih, Angraeng to poek o moe, palungset o.
2From the day that the ark stayed in Kiriath Jearim, the time was long—for it was twenty years; and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.

3Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you are returning to the LORD with all your heart, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and direct your hearts to the LORD, and serve him only; and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.”
4To pongah Israel kaminawk mah Baal sithaw hoi Ashtaroth sithawnawk to pahnawt o moe, Angraeng ih tok khue to a sak o.
4Then the children of Israel removed the Baals and the Ashtaroth, and served the LORD only.
5To naah Samuel mah, Israel kaminawk boih Mizpah vangpui ah amkhueng oh, nangcae han Angraeng khaeah tahmenhaih kang hnik pae han, tiah a naa.
5Samuel said, “Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD for you.”

6They gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and said there, “We have sinned against the LORD.” Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah.
7Israel kaminawk Mizpah ah amkhueng o, tiah Philistinnawk mah thaih o naah, Philistin ukkungnawk loe Israel kaminawk tuk hanah caeh o. To lok to Israel kaminawk mah thaih o naah, Philistinnawk to zit o.
7When the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. When the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.

9Samuel took a suckling lamb, and offered it for a whole burnt offering to the LORD. Samuel cried to the LORD for Israel, and the LORD answered him.
10Samuel mah angbawnhaih sak li naah, Philistinnawk loe Israel kaminawk tuk hanah anghnaih o aep aep boeh; toe to na niah Angraeng mah Philistinnawk to khopazih tuen hoiah kah, to naah nihcae to ampraek o phang moe, Israel kaminawk hmaa ah sung o.
10As Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines came near to battle against Israel; but the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day on the Philistines and confused them; and they were struck down before Israel.
11Israel kaminawk loe Mizpah vangpui hoiah tacawt o moe, Philistinnawk to hum o; nihcae to Beth-Kar karoek to patom o.
11The men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, and struck them until they came under Beth Kar.

12Then Samuel took a stone and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, saying, “The LORD helped us until now.”
13Philistinnawk pazawk o pacoengah loe Israel prae thungah angzo o let ai boeh. Samuel hing thung, Angraeng ih ban mah Philistin kaminawk to tuk.
13So the Philistines were subdued, and they stopped coming within the border of Israel. The LORD’s hand was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

14The cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath; and Israel recovered its border out of the hand of the Philistines. There was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
15Samuel loe hing thung Israel kaminawk ukkung ah oh.
15Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.

16He went from year to year in a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah; and he judged Israel in all those places.
