1 Samuel 12:19-23

JuliaSmith(i) 19 And all the people will say to Samuel, Pray for thy servants to Jehovah thy God, and we shall not die; for we added upon all our sins the wickedness to ask for us a king. 20 And Samuel will say to the people, Ye shall not be afraid: ye did all this wickedness: but ye shall not turn aside from after Jehovah, and serve ye Jehovah with all your heart. 21 And ye shall not turn aside: for after vanities which will not profit, and they will not deliver, for they are vanities. 22 For Jehovah will not cast off his people on account of his great name, for Jehovah willed to make you to him for a people. 23 Also I, far be it to me sinning against Jehovah ceasing to pray for you: and I taught you in the good and straight way.
