Legacy Standard Bible

⁷ Then the Philistines heard that the sons of Israel had gathered to Mizpah. And the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. Then the sons of Israel heard it and ^(A)were afraid of the Philistines. ⁸ So the sons of Israel said to Samuel, “^(B)Do not cease to cry out to Yahweh our God for us, that He may save us from the hand of the Philistines.” ⁹ And Samuel took ^(C)a suckling lamb and offered it for a whole burnt offering to Yahweh; and Samuel cried out to Yahweh for Israel, and ^(D)Yahweh answered him.
