Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life. He used to go [on the circuit] {from year to year}. He went around Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and he judged Israel [in] all these places. Then {he returned} to Ramah, because his house was there, and there he judged Israel, and he built an altar to Yahweh there.
