unto°
all°
Israel,°
Behold,°
I have hearkened°°
unto your voice°
in all°
that°
ye said°°
unto me, and have made°°
a king°°
over°
you. |
|
12:2
And now, behold, the king goes before you; and I am grown old and shall rest; and, behold, my sons [are] among you; and, behold, I have gone about before you from my youth to this day. |
|
12:2
And now,°
behold,°
the king°
walketh°°
before°
you: and I°
am old°°
and grayheaded;°°
and, behold,°
my sons°
[are] with°
you: and I°
have walked°°
before°
you from my childhood°°
unto°
this°
day.° |
|
12:3
Behold, [here am] I, answer against me before the Lord and before his anointed: whose calf have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom of you have I oppressed? or from whose hand have I taken a bribe, even [to] a sandal? bear witness against me, and I will make restitution to you. |
|
12:3
Behold,°
here I [am]: witness°°
against me before°
Yahweh,°
and before°
his anointed:°
whose°°
ox°
have I taken?°°
or whose°
ass°
have I taken?°°
or whom°
have I defrauded?°°°
whom°
have I oppressed?°°
or of whose hand°°°
have I received°
[any] bribe°
to blind°°
mine eyes°
therewith? and I will restore°°
it you. |
|
12:4

defrauded°°
us, nor°
oppressed°°
us, neither°
hast thou taken°°
ought°
of any man's°
hand.°°° |

unto°
them, Yahweh°
[is] witness°
against you, and his anointed°
[is] witness°
this°
day,°
that°
ye have not°
found°°
ought°
in my hand.°

unto°
the people,°
[It is] Yahweh°
that°
advanced°°°
Moses°
and Aaron,°
and that°
brought°°°
your fathers°
up°°
out of the land°°
of Egypt.° |
|
12:7
And now stand still, and I will judge you before the Lord; and I will relate to you all the righteousness of the Lord, the things which he has wrought among you and your fathers. |
|
12:7
Now°
therefore stand still,°°
that I may reason°°
with°
you before°
Yahweh°
of°
all°
the righteous acts°
of Yahweh,°
which°
he did°°
to°
you and to°
your fathers.° |
|
12:8

|
12:8
When°
Jacob°
was come°°
into Egypt,°
and your fathers°
cried°°
unto°
Yahweh,°
then Yahweh°
sent°°°
Moses°
and Aaron,°
which brought forth°°°
your fathers°
out of Egypt,°°
and made them dwell°°
in this°
place.° |
|

Yahweh°
their Elohim,°
he sold°°
them into the hand°
of Sisera,°
captain°
of the host°

|
12:10
And they cried°°
unto°
Yahweh,°
and said,°°
We have sinned,°°
because°
we have forsaken°°°
Yahweh,°
and have served°°°
Baalim°
and Ashtaroth:°
but now°
deliver°°
us out of the hand°°
of our enemies,°°
and we will serve°°
thee. |

And Yahweh°
sent°°°
Jerubbaal,°
and Bedan,°
and Jephthah,°
and Samuel,°
and delivered°°
you out of the hand°°

And ye saw that Nahash{gr.Naas} king of the children of Ammon came against you, and ye said, Nay, none but a king shall reign over us; whereas the Lord our God [is] our king. |
|
12:12
And when ye saw°°
that°
Nahash°
the king°
of the children°
of Ammon°
came°°
against°
you, ye said°°
unto me, Nay;°
but°
a king°
shall reign°°
over°
us: when Yahweh°
your Elohim°
[was] your king.° |
|
12:13
And now behold the king whom ye have chosen; and behold, the Lord has set a king over you. |
|
12:13
Now°
therefore behold°
the king°
whom°
ye have chosen,°°
[and] whom°
ye have desired!°°
and, behold,°
Yahweh°
hath set°°
a king°
over°
you. |
|
12:14
If ye should fear the Lord, and serve him, and hearken to his voice, and not resist the mouth of the Lord, and ye and your king that reigns over you should follow the Lord, [well]. |
|
12:14
If°
ye will fear°°°
Yahweh,°
and serve°°
him, and obey°°
his voice,°
and not°
rebel°°
against°°
the commandment°
of Yahweh,°
then shall both°
ye°
and also°
the king°
that°
reigneth°°
over°
you continue°
following°
Yahweh°
your Elohim:° |
|
12:15
But if ye should not hearken to the voice of the Lord, and ye should resist the mouth of the Lord, then shall the hand of the Lord be upon you and upon your king. |
|
12:15
But if°
ye will not°
obey°°
the voice°
of Yahweh,°
but rebel°°
against°°
the commandment°
of Yahweh,°
then shall the hand°
of Yahweh°
be°
against you, as [it was] against your fathers.° |
|
12:16 ¶
And now stand still, and see this great thing, which the Lord will do before your eyes. |
|
12:16 ¶
Now°
therefore°
stand°°
and see°°°
this°
great°
thing,°
which°
Yahweh°
will do°°
before your eyes.° |
|
12:17
[Is it] not wheat-harvest to-day? I will call upon the Lord, and he shall send thunder and rain; and know ye and see, that your wickedness [is] great which ye have wrought before the Lord, having asked for yourselves a king. |
|
12:17
[Is it] not°
wheat°
harvest°
to day?°
I will call°°
unto°
Yahweh,°
and he shall send°°
thunder°
and rain;°
that ye may perceive°°
and see°°
that°
your wickedness°
[is] great,°
which°
ye have done°°
in the sight°
of Yahweh,°
in asking°°
you a king.° |

unto°
Yahweh;°
and Yahweh°
sent°°
thunder°
and rain°
that°
day:°
and all°
the people°
greatly°
feared°°°
Yahweh°
and Samuel.° |
|
12:19
And all the people said to Samuel, Pray for thy servants to the Lord thy God, and let us not die; for we have added to all our sins this iniquity, in asking for us a king. |
|

And all°
the people°
said°°
unto°
Samuel,°
Pray°°
for°
thy servants°
unto°
Yahweh°
thy Elohim,°
that we die°°
not:°
for°
we have added°°
unto°
all°
our sins°
[this] evil,°
to ask°°
us a king.° |
|
12:20 ¶
And Samuel said to the people, Fear not: ye have [indeed] wrought all this iniquity; only turn not from following the Lord, and serve the Lord with all your heart. |
|
12:20 ¶
And Samuel°
said°°
unto°
the people,°
Fear°°
not:°
ye°
have done°°°
all°
this°
wickedness:°
yet°
turn not aside°°°
from following°°
Yahweh,°
but serve°°°
Yahweh°
with all°
your heart;° |
|
12:21
And turn not aside after the [gods] that are nothing, who will do nothing, and will not deliver [you], because they are nothing. |
|
12:21
And turn ye not aside:°°°
for°
[then should ye go] after°
vain°
[things], which°
cannot°
profit°°
nor°
deliver;°°
for°
they°
[are] vain.° |
|
12:22
For the Lord will not cast off his people for his great name's sake, because the Lord graciously took you to himself for a people. |
|
12:22
For°
Yahweh°
will not°
forsake°°°
his people°
for his great°
name's°
sake:°
because°
it hath pleased°°
Yahweh°
to make°°
you his people.° |
|
12:23
And far be it from me to sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you: but I will serve the Lord, and shew you the good and the right way. |
|
12:23
Moreover°
as for me,°
God forbid°°
that I should sin°°°
against Yahweh°
in ceasing°°°
to pray°°
for°
you: but I will teach°°
you the good°
and the right°
way:° |
|
12:24
Only fear the Lord, and serve him in truth and with all your heart, for ye see what great things he has wrought with you. |
|
12:24
Only°
fear°°°
Yahweh,°
and serve°°
him in truth°
with all°
your heart:°
for°
consider°°°
how°
great [things] he hath done°°
for°
you. |
|
12:25
But if ye continue to do evil, then shall ye and your king be consumed. |
|
12:25
But if°
ye shall still°°
do wickedly,°°
ye shall be consumed,°°
both°
ye°
and°
your king.° |
