1 Samuel 7:13-15

New Catholic Bible

¹³ Thus the Philistines were defeated and they no longer raided the territory of Israel. The hand of the Lord was raised against the Philistines as long as Samuel lived. ¹⁴ The towns that lay between Ekron and Gath that the Philistines had captured from Israel were restored to the Israelites, and Israel was able to deliver its borderlands from the hands of the Philistines. There was even peace between Israel and the Amorites.

¹⁵ Samuel continued to serve as the judge of Israel throughout his entire lifetime.
