And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto all IsraelH3478, Behold, I have hearkenedH8085 unto your voiceH6963 in all that ye saidH559 unto me, and have madeH4427 a kingH4428 over you.
And now, behold, the kingH4428 walkethH1980 beforeH6440 you: and I am oldH2204 and grayheadedH7867; and, behold, my sonsH1121 are with you: and I have walkedH1980 beforeH6440 you from my childhoodH5271 unto this dayH3117.
Behold, here I am: witnessH6030 against me before the LORDH3068, and before his anointedH4899: whose oxH7794 have I takenH3947? or whose assH2543 have I takenH3947? or whom have I defraudedH6231? whom have I oppressedH7533? or of whose handH3027 have I received any bribeH3724 to blindH5956 mine eyesH5869 therewith? and I will restoreH7725 it you. {bribe: Heb. ransom} {to blind…: or, that I should hide mine eyes at him}
And they saidH559, Thou hast not defraudedH6231 us, nor oppressedH7533 us, neither hast thou takenH3947 oughtH3972 of any man'sH376 handH3027.
And he saidH559 unto them, The LORDH3068 is witnessH5707 against you, and his anointedH4899 is witnessH5707 this dayH3117, that ye have not foundH4672 oughtH3972 in my handH3027. And they answeredH559, He is witnessH5707.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, It is the LORDH3068 that advancedH6213 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, and that broughtH5927 your fathersH1 upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {advanced: or, made}
Now therefore stand stillH3320, that I may reasonH8199 with you beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 of all the righteous actsH6666 of the LORDH3068, which he didH6213 to you and to your fathersH1. {righteous…: Heb. righteousnesses, or, benefits} {to: Heb. with}
When JacobH3290 was comeH935 into EgyptH4714, and your fathersH1 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, then the LORDH3068 sentH7971 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, which brought forthH3318 your fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, and made them dwellH3427 in this placeH4725.
And when they forgatH7911 the LORDH3068 their GodH430, he soldH4376 them into the handH3027 of SiseraH5516, captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of HazorH2674, and into the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430, and into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and they foughtH3898 against them.
And they criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, We have sinnedH2398, because we have forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068, and have servedH5647 BaalimH1168 and AshtarothH6252: but now deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of our enemiesH341, and we will serveH5647 thee.
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 JerubbaalH3378, and BedanH917, and JephthahH3316, and SamuelH8050, and deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of your enemiesH341 on every sideH5439, and ye dwelledH3427 safeH983.
And when ye sawH7200 that NahashH5176 the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 cameH935 against you, ye saidH559 unto me, Nay; but a kingH4428 shall reignH4427 over us: when the LORDH3068 your GodH430 was your kingH4428.
Now therefore behold the kingH4428 whom ye have chosenH977, and whom ye have desiredH7592! and, behold, the LORDH3068 hath setH5414 a kingH4428 over you.
If ye will fearH3372 the LORDH3068, and serveH5647 him, and obeyH8085 his voiceH6963, and not rebelH4784 against the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, then shall both ye and also the kingH4428 that reignethH4427 over you continue followingH310 the LORDH3068 your GodH430: {commandment: Heb. mouth} {continue…: Heb. be after}
But if ye will not obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, but rebelH4784 against the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, then shall the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 be against you, as it was against your fathersH1.
Now thereforeH1571 standH3320 and seeH7200 this greatH1419 thingH1697, which the LORDH3068 will doH6213 before your eyesH5869.
Is it not wheatH2406 harvestH7105 to dayH3117? I will callH7121 unto the LORDH3068, and he shall sendH5414 thunderH6963 and rainH4306; that ye may perceiveH3045 and seeH7200 that your wickednessH7451 is greatH7227, which ye have doneH6213 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, in askingH7592 you a kingH4428.
So SamuelH8050 calledH7121 unto the LORDH3068; and the LORDH3068 sentH5414 thunderH6963 and rainH4306 that dayH3117: and all the peopleH5971 greatlyH3966 fearedH3372 the LORDH3068 and SamuelH8050.
And all the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, PrayH6419 for thy servantsH5650 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, that we dieH4191 not: for we have addedH3254 unto all our sinsH2403 this evilH7451, to askH7592 us a kingH4428.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, FearH3372 not: ye have doneH6213 all this wickednessH7451: yet turn not asideH5493 from followingH310 the LORDH3068, but serveH5647 the LORDH3068 with all your heartH3824;
And turn ye not asideH5493: for then should ye go afterH310 vainH8414 things, which cannot profitH3276 nor deliverH5337; for they are vainH8414.
For the LORDH3068 will not forsakeH5203 his peopleH5971 for his greatH1419 name'sH8034 sake: because it hath pleasedH2974 the LORDH3068 to makeH6213 you his peopleH5971.
Moreover as for meH595, God forbidH2486 that I should sinH2398 against the LORDH3068 in ceasingH2308 to prayH6419 for you: but I will teachH3384 you the goodH2896 and the rightH3477 wayH1870: {in: Heb. from}
Only fearH3372 the LORDH3068, and serveH5647 him in truthH571 with all your heartH3824: for considerH7200 how great things he hath doneH1431 for you. {how…: or, what a great thing}
But if ye shall stillH7489 do wickedlyH7489, ye shall be consumedH5595, both ye and your kingH4428.

They have moved me to jealousyH7065 with that which is notH3808 GodH410; they have provoked me to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892: and I will move them to jealousyH7065 with those which are not a peopleH5971; I will provoke them to angerH3707 with a foolishH5036 nationH1471.
Their idolsH6091 are silverH3701 and goldH2091, the workH4639 of men'sH120 handsH3027.
They have mouthsH6310, but they speakH1696 not: eyesH5869 have they, but they seeH7200 not:
They have earsH241, but they hearH8085 not: nosesH639 have they, but they smellH7306 not:
They have handsH3027, but they handleH4184 not: feetH7272 have they, but they walkH1980 not: neither speakH1897 they through their throatH1627.

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, What iniquityH5766 have your fathersH1 foundH4672 in me, that they are gone farH7368 from me, and have walkedH3212 afterH310 vanityH1892, and are become vainH1891?
ShewH5046 the things that are to comeH857 hereafterH268, that we may knowH3045 that ye are godsH430: yea, do goodH3190, or do evilH7489, that we may be dismayedH8159, and beholdH7200 it togetherH3162.
For my peopleH5971 have committedH6213 twoH8147 evilsH7451; they have forsakenH5800 me the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325, and hewed them outH2672 cisternsH877, brokenH7665 cisternsH877, that can holdH3557 no waterH4325.
Behold, ye are of nothingH369, and your workH6467 of noughtH659: an abominationH8441 is he that choosethH977 you. {of nothing: or, worse than nothing} {of nought: or, worse than of a viper}
But they are altogetherH259 brutishH1197 and foolishH3688: the stockH6086 is a doctrineH4148 of vanitiesH1892. {altogether: Heb. in one, or, at once}
They that makeH3335 a graven imageH6459 are all of them vanityH8414; and their delectable thingsH2530 shall not profitH3276; and they are their own witnessesH5707; they seeH7200 not, nor knowH3045; that they may be ashamedH954. {delectable: Heb. desirable}

AssembleH6908 yourselves and comeH935; draw nearH5066 togetherH3162, ye that are escapedH6412 of the nationsH1471: they have no knowledgeH3045 that set upH5375 the woodH6086 of their graven imageH6459, and prayH6419 unto a godH410 that cannot saveH3467.
O LORDH3068, my strengthH5797, and my fortressH4581, and my refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of afflictionH6869, the GentilesH1471 shall comeH935 unto thee from the endsH657 of the earthH776, and shall sayH559, Surely our fathersH1 have inheritedH5157 liesH8267, vanityH1892, and things wherein there is no profitH3276.
