"For Yahweh will not forsake his people for his great name's sake, because it has pleased Yahweh to make you a people to himself."
— 1 Samuel 12:22, World English Bible
“For the Lord will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people.”
“For Jehovah will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake, because it hath pleased Jehovah to make you a people unto himself. ”
“The LORD will not abandon his people because he wants to uphold his great reputation. The LORD was pleased to make you his own people.”
“And the Lord will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because the Lord hath sworn to make you his people.”
“For the Lord will not give his people up, because of the honour of his name; for it was the Lord's pleasure to make of you a people for himself.”
“For the Lord will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people.”
All the people said to Samuel, "Pray for your servants to Yahweh your God, that we not die; for we have added to all our sins [this] evil, to ask us a king."
Samuel said to the people, "Don't be afraid. You have indeed done all this evil; yet don't turn aside from following Yahweh, but serve Yahweh with all your heart.
Don't turn aside; for [then you would go] after vain things which can't profit nor deliver, for they are vain.
For Yahweh will not forsake his people for his great name's sake, because it has pleased Yahweh to make you a people to himself.
Moreover as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against Yahweh in ceasing to pray for you: but I will instruct you in the good and the right way.
Only fear Yahweh, and serve him in truth with all your heart; for consider how great things he has done for you.
But if you shall still do wickedly, you shall be consumed, both you and your king."
