1 Samuel 12:6-13

6Then Samuel said to the people, “It is the Lord who 12appointed Moses and Aaron and who brought your fathers up from the land of Egypt.

7Now then, take your stand, 3so that I may enter into judgment with you before the Lord concerning all the righteous acts of the Lord that He did for you and your fathers.

84When Jacob went into Egypt and 5your fathers cried out to the Lord, then 6the Lord sent Moses and Aaron 78who brought your fathers out of Egypt and settled them in this place.

9But 9they forgot the Lord their God, so 10He sold them into the hand of Sisera, commander of the army of Hazor, and 11into the hand of the Philistines, and 12into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fought against them.

1013They cried out to the Lord and said, ‘We have sinned, because we have abandoned the Lord and have served 14the Baals and the Ashtaroth; but 15now save us from the hands of our enemies, and we will serve You.’

11Then the Lord sent 16Jerubbaal, 1718Bedan, 19Jephthah, and 20Samuel, and saved you from the hands of your enemies all around, so that you lived in security.

12But when you saw 21that Nahash the king of the sons of Ammon was coming against you, you said to me, ‘22No, but a king shall reign over us!’ 23Yet the Lord your God was your king.

13And now, 24behold, the king whom you have chosen, 25whom you have asked for, and behold, the Lord has 26put a king over you.
