1 Samuel 12:22 Context
20¶ And Samuel saide vnto the people, Feare not: (ye haue done al this wickednesse, yet turne not aside from following the Lord, but serue the Lord with all your heart: 21And turne ye not aside, for then should ye goe after vaine things, which cannot profit, nor deliuer, for they are vaine.) 22For the Lord wil not forsake his people, for his great Names sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people. 23Moreouer, as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the Lord, in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way. 24Onely feare the Lord, and serue him in trueth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.
