And he went from year to year in circuit to Beth-el, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel in all those places.
He went from year to year in circuit among the people to judge Israel in those places and administer justice, traveling yearly to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpeh, the round also being given as Mizpeh, Gilgal, and Ramah. At other times he carried out his duties at home in Ramah, and he continued judging Israel throughout his life. He did this work faithfully and impartially, serving with wisdom and zeal as judge, prophet, and priest.
Under his administration the nation prospered, order was restored, and godliness increased. His sons assisted him but did not follow his example, favoring the unrighteous because they loved reward.
