1 Samuel 12:1-11

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all Israel
<03478>_,

Behold, I have hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto your voice
<06963>

in all that ye said
<0559> (8804)

unto me, and have made
<04427> (8686)

a king
<04428>

over you.

And now, behold, the king
<04428>

walketh
<01980> (8693)

before
<06440>

you: and I am old
<02204> (8804)

and grayheaded
<07867> (8804)_;

and, behold, my sons
<01121>

[are] with you: and I have walked
<01980> (8694)

before
<06440>

you from my childhood
<05271>

unto this day
<03117>_.

Behold, here I [am]: witness
<06030> (8798)

against me before the LORD
<03068>_,

and before his anointed
<04899>_:

whose ox
<07794>

have I taken
<03947> (8804)_?

or whose ass
<02543>

have I taken
<03947> (8804)_?

or whom have I defrauded
<06231> (8804)_?

whom have I oppressed
<07533> (8804)_?

or of whose hand
<03027>

have I received [any] bribe
<03724>

to blind
<05956> (8686)

mine eyes
<05869>

therewith? and I will restore
<07725> (8686)

it you. {bribe: Heb. ransom} {to blind...: or, that I should hide mine eyes at him}

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou hast not defrauded
<06231> (8804)

us, nor oppressed
<07533> (8804)

us, neither hast thou taken
<03947> (8804)

ought
<03972>

of any man's
<0376>

hand
<03027>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, The LORD
<03068>

[is] witness
<05707>

against you, and his anointed
<04899>

[is] witness
<05707>

this day
<03117>_,

that ye have not found
<04672> (8804)

ought
<03972>

in my hand
<03027>_.

And they answered
<0559> (8799)_,

[He is] witness
<05707>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the people
<05971>_,

[It is] the LORD
<03068>

that advanced
<06213> (8804)

Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>_,

and that brought
<05927> (0)

your fathers
<01>

up
<05927> (8689)

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

{advanced: or, made}

Now therefore stand still
<03320> (8690)_,

that I may reason
<08199> (8735)

with you before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

of all the righteous acts
<06666>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which he did
<06213> (8804)

to you and to your fathers
<01>_.

{righteous...: Heb. righteousnesses, or, benefits} {to: Heb. with}

When Jacob
<03290>

was come
<0935> (8804)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

and your fathers
<01>

cried
<02199> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

then the LORD
<03068>

sent
<07971> (8799)

Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>_,

which brought forth
<03318> (8686)

your fathers
<01>

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

and made them dwell
<03427> (8686)

in this place
<04725>_.

And when they forgat
<07911> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>_,

he sold
<04376> (8799)

them into the hand
<03027>

of Sisera
<05516>_,

captain
<08269>

of the host
<06635>

of Hazor
<02674>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and they fought
<03898> (8735)

against them.

And they cried
<02199> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

We have sinned
<02398> (8804)_,

because we have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and have served
<05647> (8799)

Baalim
<01168>

and Ashtaroth
<06252>_:

but now deliver
<05337> (8685)

us out of the hand
<03027>

of our enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and we will serve
<05647> (8799)

thee.

And the LORD
<03068>

sent
<07971> (8799)

Jerubbaal
<03378>_,

and Bedan
<0917>_,

and Jephthah
<03316>_,

and Samuel
<08050>_,

and delivered
<05337> (8686)

you out of the hand
<03027>

of your enemies
<0341> (8802)

on every side
<05439>_,

and ye dwelled
<03427> (8799)

safe
<0983>_.
