1 Samuel 12:1-5
1Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 to allH3605 IsraelH3478, “BeholdH2009, 1I have listenedH8085 to your voiceH6963 for allH3605 that you saidH559 to me, and I 2have appointedH4427 a kingH4428 overH5921 you. 2NowH6258, 3hereH2009 is the kingH4428 walkingH1980 beforeH6440 you, but as for me, 4I amH2204 oldH2204 and grayH7867, and 5my sonsH1121 are hereH2009 with you. And 6I have walkedH1980 beforeH6440 you sinceH4480 my youthH5271 to thisH2088 dayH3117. 3HereH2009 I am; testifyH6030 against me beforeH5048 the LordH3068 and 7His anointedH4899. 8WhoseH4310 oxH7794 have I takenH3947, or whoseH4310 donkeyH2543 have I takenH3947, or whomH4310 have I exploitedH6231? WhomH4310 have I oppressedH7533, or 9from whoseH4310 handH3027 have I takenH3947 a bribeH3724 to closeH5956 my eyesH5869 with it? I will returnH7725 it to you.” 4And they saidH559, “You have not exploitedH6231 us or oppressedH7533 us, or takenH3947 anythingH3972 from anyone’sH376 handH3027.” 5So he saidH559 to them, “The LordH3068 is witnessH5707 against you, and His anointedH4899 is witnessH5707 thisH2088 dayH3117 that 10you have foundH4672 nothingH3808H3972 11in my handH3027.” And they saidH559, “He is witnessH5707.”
