1 Da kom Mændene fra Kirjat-Jearim og hentede HERRENs Ark op til sig og bragte den til Abinadabs Hus på Højen; og hans Søn El'azar helligede de til at vogte HERRENs Ark.
1 And the men of Kiriath-jearim came and took the ark of the Lord and brought it into the house of Abinadab on the hill, and consecrated Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the Lord.
3 Da sagde Samuel til hele Israels Hus: "Hvis I vil omvende eder til HERREN af hele eders Hjerte, skil eder så af med de fremmede Guder og Astarterne; vend eders Hu til HERREN og dyrk ham alene, så vil han fri eder af Filisternes Hånd!"
3 Then Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you return to the Lord with all your heart, remove the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you and direct your hearts to the Lord and serve Him alone; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.”
6 Så samlede de sig i Mizpa og øste Vand og udgød det for HERRENs Åsyn, og de fastede den Dag og sagde der: "Vi har syndet mod HERREN!" Derpå dømte Samuel Israeliterne i Mizpa.
6 They gathered 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.” And Samuel judged the sons of Israel at Mizpah.
7 Da Filisterne hørte, at Israeliterne havde samlet sig i Mizpa, drog Filisterfyrsterne op imod Israel; og da Israeliterne hørte det, blev de bange for Filisterne.
7 Now when the Philistines heard that the sons of Israel had gathered to Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the sons of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
10 Medens Samuel var i Færd med at bringe Brændofferet, rykkede Filisterne frem til Kamp mod Israel,men HERREN sendte den Dag et vældigt Tordenvejr over Filisterne og bragte dem i Uorden, så de blev slået af Israel;
10 Now Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, and the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel. But the Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day against the Philistines and confused them, so that they were routed before Israel.
13 Således bukkede filisterne under, og de faldt ikke mere ind i Israels Land, men HERRENs Hånd lå tungt på Filisterne, så længe Samuel levede.
13 So the Philistines were subdued and they did not come anymore within the border of Israel. And the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
14 De Byer, Filisterne havde taget, fik Israel tilbage, fra Ekron til Gat; også Landet der omkring frarev Israeliterne Filisterne; og der var Fred mellem Israel og Amoriterne.
14 The cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath; and Israel delivered their territory from the hand of the Philistines. So there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
