Samuel 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.
As 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.
The men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, and struck them until they came under Beth Kar.
