1 Samuel 12:6-13
6And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, It is the LORDH3068 that appointed MosesH4872 and AaronH175, and that broughtH5927 your fathersH1 upH5927 outH413 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
7NowH6258 therefore standH3320 still, that I may pleadH8199 with youH834 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 concerning allH3605 the righteousH6666 actsH6213 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 he didH6213 to youH834 and to your fathersH1.
8When JacobH3290 was comeH935 intoH413 EgyptH4714, and your fathersH1 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, then the LORDH3068 sentH7971 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, who broughtH935 forthH3318 your fathersH1 outH3318 of EgyptH4714, and madeH834 them to dwellH3427 in this placeH4725.
9But they forgat the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and he soldH4376 them intoH3027 the handH3027 of SiseraH5516, captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of HazorH2674, and intoH3027 the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430, and intoH3027 the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and they foughtH3898 againstH3027 them.
10And they criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, WeH3588 have sinnedH2398, becauseH3588 weH3588 have forsaken the LORDH3068, and have servedH5647 the Baalim and the AshtarothH6252: but nowH6258 deliverH5337 usH413 outH2199 of the handH3027 of our enemiesH341, and weH3588 will serveH5647 thee.
11And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 JerubbaalH3378, and BedanH917, and JephthahH3316, and SamuelH8050, and deliveredH5337 youH7971 outH7971 of the handH3027 of your enemiesH341 on everyH5439 sideH5439, and ye dwelled in safetyH983.
12And when ye sawH7200 that NahashH5176 the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 cameH935 againstH5921 youH3588, ye saidH559 unto meH5921, Nay, but a kingH4428 shall reignH4427 over usH5921: when the LORDH3068 your GodH430 was your kingH4428.
13NowH6258 therefore beholdH2009 the kingH4428 whomH834 ye have chosenH977, and whomH834 ye have askedH7592 for: and, beholdH2009, the LORDH3068 hath setH5414 a kingH4428 over youH834.
