1 Samuel 12 — Context

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."
