1 Samuel 12 — Context

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.

And as for me, never will I go against the orders of the Lord by giving up my prayers for you: but I will go on teaching you the good and right way.

Only go in the fear of the Lord, and be his true servants with all your heart, keeping in mind what great things he has done for you.

But if you still do evil, destruction will overtake you and your king.
