¶ Then Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye be come again unto the Lord with all your heart, (A)put away the strange gods from among you, and (B)Ashtoreth, and direct your hearts unto the Lord, and serve him (C)only, and he shall deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.

Then the children of Israel did put away (D)Baal and Ashtoreth, and served the Lord only.

And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to [a]Mizpah, and I will pray for you unto the Lord.
