 So they all met together at Mizpah. They got some water from a spring and poured it on the ground. That was their way to tell God that they felt shamed. They were sorry that they showed respect to those statues. On that day they didnt eat any food as they prayed to him. They prayed like this, Our God, we did wrong things. We didnt follow your way. Thats the way Samuel led the people to go the right way.
