1 Samuel 12:1-12

1And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto all IsraelH3478, Behold, I have hearkenedH8085 unto your voiceH6963 in all that ye saidH559 unto me, and have madeH4427 a kingH4428 over you. 2And now, behold, the kingH4428 walkethH1980 beforeH6440 you: and I am oldH2204 and grayheadedH7867; and, behold, my sonsH1121 are with you: and I have walkedH1980 beforeH6440 you from my childhoodH5271 unto this dayH3117. 3Behold, here I am: witnessH6030 against me before YhwhH3068, and before his anointedH4899: whose oxH7794 have I takenH3947? or whose donkeyH2543 have I takenH3947? or whom have I defraudedH6231? whom have I oppressedH7533? or of whose handH3027 have I received any bribeH3724 to blindH5956 mine eyesH5869 therewith? and I will restoreH7725 it you.12 4And they saidH559, Thou hast not defraudedH6231 us, nor oppressedH7533 us, neither hast thou takenH3947 oughtH3972 of any man’sH376 handH3027. 5And he saidH559 unto them, YhwhH3068 is witnessH5707 against you, and his anointedH4899 is witnessH5707 this dayH3117, that ye have not foundH4672 oughtH3972 in my handH3027. And they answeredH559, He is witnessH5707.

6And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, It is YhwhH3068 that advancedH6213 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, and that broughtH5927 your fathersH1 upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.3 7Now therefore stand stillH3320, that I may reasonH8199 with you beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 of all the righteous actsH6666 of YhwhH3068, which he didH6213 to you and to your fathersH1.45 8When JacobH3290 was comeH935 into EgyptH4714, and your fathersH1 criedH2199 unto YhwhH3068, Then YhwhH3068 sentH7971 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, which brought forthH3318 your fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, and made them dwellH3427 in this placeH4725. 9And when they forgatH7911 YhwhH3068 their GodH430, he soldH4376 them into the handH3027 of SiseraH5516, captainH8269 of the armyH6635 of HazorH2674, and into the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430, and into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and they foughtH3898 against them. 10And they criedH2199 unto YhwhH3068, and saidH559, We have sinnedH2398, because we have forsakenH5800 YhwhH3068, and have servedH5647 BaalimH1168 and AshtarothH6252: but now deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of our enemiesH341, and we will serveH5647 thee. 11And YhwhH3068 sentH7971 JerubbaalH3378, and BedanH917, and JephthahH3316, and SamuelH8050, and deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of your enemiesH341 on every sideH5439, and ye dwelledH3427 safeH983. 12And when ye sawH7200 that NahashH5176 the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 cameH935 against you, ye saidH559 unto me, Nay; but a kingH4428 shall reignH4427 over us: when YhwhH3068 your GodH430 was your kingH4428.
