1 Samuel 12:2
And now, behold, the king{H4428} walketh{H1980}{(H8693)} before{H6440} you: and I am old{H2204}{(H8804)} and grayheaded{H7867}{(H8804)}; and, behold, my sons{H1121} are with you: and I have walked{H1980}{(H8694)} before{H6440} you from my childhood{H5271} unto this day{H3117}.
1 Samuel 12:3
Behold, here I am: witness{H6030}{(H8798)} against me before the LORD{H3068}, and before his anointed{H4899}: whose ox{H7794} have I taken{H3947}{(H8804)}? or whose ass{H2543} have I taken{H3947}{(H8804)}? or whom have I defrauded{H6231}{(H8804)}? whom have I oppressed{H7533}{(H8804)}? or of whose hand{H3027} have I received any bribe{H3724} to blind{H5956}{(H8686)} mine eyes{H5869} therewith? and I will restore{H7725}{(H8686)} it you.
1 Samuel 12:4
And they said{H559}{(H8799)}, Thou hast not defrauded{H6231}{(H8804)} us, nor oppressed{H7533}{(H8804)} us, neither hast thou taken{H3947}{(H8804)} ought{H3972} of any man's{H376} hand{H3027}.
1 Samuel 12:5

1 Samuel 12:7
Now therefore stand still{H3320}{(H8690)}, that I may reason{H8199}{(H8735)} with you before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} of all the righteous acts{H6666} of the LORD{H3068}, which he did{H6213}{(H8804)} to you and to your fathers{H1}.
1 Samuel 12:8
When Jacob{H3290} was come{H935}{(H8804)} into Egypt{H4714}, and your fathers{H1} cried{H2199}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068}, then the LORD{H3068} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175}, which brought forth{H3318}{(H8686)} your fathers{H1} out of Egypt{H4714}, and made them dwell{H3427}{(H8686)} in this place{H4725}.
1 Samuel 12:9
And when they forgat{H7911}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068} their God{H430}, he sold{H4376}{(H8799)} them into the hand{H3027} of Sisera{H5516}, captain{H8269} of the host{H6635} of Hazor{H2674}, and into the hand{H3027} of the Philistines{H6430}, and into the hand{H3027} of the king{H4428} of Moab{H4124}, and they fought{H3898}{(H8735)} against them.
1 Samuel 12:10
And they cried{H2199}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, We have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)}, because we have forsaken{H5800}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}, and have served{H5647}{(H8799)} Baalim{H1168} and Ashtaroth{H6252}: but now deliver{H5337}{(H8685)} us out of the hand{H3027} of our enemies{H341}{(H8802)}, and we will serve{H5647}{(H8799)} thee.
1 Samuel 12:11

1 Samuel 12:12

1 Samuel 12:13
Now therefore behold the king{H4428} whom ye have chosen{H977}{(H8804)}, and whom ye have desired{H7592}{(H8804)}! and, behold, the LORD{H3068} hath set{H5414}{(H8804)} a king{H4428} over you.
1 Samuel 12:14
If ye will fear{H3372}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068}, and serve{H5647}{(H8804)} him, and obey{H8085}{(H8804)} his voice{H6963}, and not rebel{H4784}{(H8686)} against the commandment{H6310} of the LORD{H3068}, then shall both ye and also the king{H4428} that reigneth{H4427}{(H8804)} over you continue following{H310} the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}:
1 Samuel 12:15
But if ye will not obey{H8085}{(H8799)} the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068}, but rebel{H4784}{(H8804)} against the commandment{H6310} of the LORD{H3068}, then shall the hand{H3027} of the LORD{H3068} be against you, as it was against your fathers{H1}.
1 Samuel 12:16
Now therefore{H1571} stand{H3320}{(H8690)} and see{H7200}{(H8798)} this great{H1419} thing{H1697}, which the LORD{H3068} will do{H6213}{(H8802)} before your eyes{H5869}.
1 Samuel 12:17
Is it not wheat{H2406} harvest{H7105} to day{H3117}? I will call{H7121}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068}, and he shall send{H5414}{(H8799)} thunder{H6963} and rain{H4306}; that ye may perceive{H3045}{(H8798)} and see{H7200}{(H8798)} that your wickedness{H7451} is great{H7227}, which ye have done{H6213}{(H8804)} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, in asking{H7592}{(H8800)} you a king{H4428}.
1 Samuel 12:18
So Samuel{H8050} called{H7121}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068}; and the LORD{H3068} sent{H5414}{(H8799)} thunder{H6963} and rain{H4306} that day{H3117}: and all the people{H5971} greatly{H3966} feared{H3372}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068} and Samuel{H8050}.
1 Samuel 12:19
And all the people{H5971} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Samuel{H8050}, Pray{H6419}{(H8690)} for thy servants{H5650} unto the LORD{H3068} thy God{H430}, that we die{H4191}{(H8799)} not: for we have added{H3254}{(H8804)} unto all our sins{H2403} this evil{H7451}, to ask{H7592}{(H8800)} us a king{H4428}.
1 Samuel 12:20
And Samuel{H8050} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the people{H5971}, Fear{H3372}{(H8799)} not: ye have done{H6213}{(H8804)} all this wickedness{H7451}: yet turn not aside{H5493}{(H8799)} from following{H310} the LORD{H3068}, but serve{H5647}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} with all your heart{H3824};
1 Samuel 12:21
And turn ye not aside{H5493}{(H8799)}: for then should ye go after{H310} vain{H8414} things, which cannot profit{H3276}{(H8686)} nor deliver{H5337}{(H8686)}; for they are vain{H8414}.
1 Samuel 12:22
For the LORD{H3068} will not forsake{H5203}{(H8799)} his people{H5971} for his great{H1419} name's{H8034} sake: because it hath pleased{H2974}{(H8689)} the LORD{H3068} to make{H6213}{(H8800)} you his people{H5971}.
1 Samuel 12:23
Moreover as for me{H595}, God forbid{H2486} that I should sin{H2398}{(H8800)} against the LORD{H3068} in ceasing{H2308}{(H8800)} to pray{H6419}{(H8692)} for you: but I will teach{H3384}{(H8689)} you the good{H2896} and the right{H3477} way{H1870}:
1 Samuel 12:24
Only fear{H3372}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068}, and serve{H5647}{(H8804)} him in truth{H571} with all your heart{H3824}: for consider{H7200}{(H8798)} how great things he hath done{H1431}{(H8689)} for you.
1 Samuel 12:25
But if ye shall still{H7489}{(H8687)} do wickedly{H7489}{(H8686)}, ye shall be consumed{H5595}{(H8735)}, both ye and your king{H4428}.
