1 Then Samuelsaid to the people of Israel, "I have done what you asked me to do. I have given you a king to rule you, 2 and now you have him to lead you. As for me, I am old and gray, and my sons are with you. I have been your leader from my youth until now. 3 Si 46.19Here I am. If I have done anything wrong, accuse me now in the presence of the Lordand the king he has chosen. Have I taken anybody’s cow or anybody’s donkey? Have I cheated or oppressed anyone? Have I accepted a bribe from anyone? If I have done any of these things, I will pay back what I have taken."
4 The people answered, "No, you have not cheated us or oppressed us; you have not taken anything from anyone."
5 Samuel replied, "The Lordand the king he has chosen are witnesses today that you have found me to be completely innocent."
"Yes, the Lordis our witness," they answered.
6 Ex 6.26Samuelcontinued, "The Lordis the one who chose Mosesand Aaronand who brought your ancestors out of Egypt. 7 Now stand where you are, and I will accuse you before the Lordby reminding you12.7: One ancient translation by reminding you; Hebrew does not have these words.of all the mighty actions the Lorddid to save you and your ancestors. 8 Ex 2.23When Jacoband his family went to Egyptand the Egyptiansoppressed them,12.8: One ancient translation and the Egyptians oppressed them; Hebrew does not have these words.your ancestors cried to the Lordfor help, and he sent Mosesand Aaron, who brought them out of Egyptand settled them in this land. 9 Jg 4.2;Jg 13.1;Jg 3.12But the people forgot the Lordtheir God, and so he let the Philistines and the king of Moaband Sisera, commander of the army of the city of Hazor, fight against your ancestors and conquer them. 10 Jg 10.10-15Then they cried to the Lordfor help and said, ‘We have sinned, because we turned away from you, Lord, and worshiped the idols of Baal and Astarte. Rescue us from our enemies, and we will worship you!’ 11 Jg 7.1;Jg 4.6;Jg 11.29;1 S 3.20And the Lordsent Gideon, Barak,12.11: Some ancient translations Barak; Hebrew Bedan.Jephthah, and finally me. Each of us rescued you from your enemies, and you lived in safety. 12 1 S 8.19But when you saw that King Nahashof Ammonwas about to attack you, you rejected the Lordas your king and said to me, ‘We want a king to rule us.’
13 "Now here is the king you chose; you asked for him, and now the Lordhas given him to you. 14 All will go well with you if you honor the Lordyour God, serve him, listen to him, and obey his commands, and if you and your king follow him. 15 But if you do not listen to the Lordbut disobey his commands, he will be against you and your king.12.15: One ancient translation your king; Hebrew your ancestors.16 So then, stand where you are, and you will see the great thing which the Lordis going to do. 17 It’s the dry season, isn’t it? But I will pray, and the Lordwill send thunder and rain. When this happens, you will realize that you committed a great sin against the Lordwhen you asked him for a king."
18 So Samuelprayed, and on that same day the Lordsent thunder and rain. Then all the people became afraid of the Lordand of Samuel, 19 and they said to Samuel, "Please, sir, pray to the Lordyour God for us, so that we won’t die. We now realize that, besides all our other sins, we have sinned by asking for a king."
20 "Don’t be afraid," Samuelanswered. "Even though you have done such an evil thing, do not turn away from the Lord, but serve him with all your heart. 21 Don’t go after12.21: Some ancient translations after; Hebrew because after.false gods; they cannot help you or save you, for they are not real. 22 The Lordhas made a solemn promise, and he will not abandon you, for he has decided to make you his own people. 23 As for me, the Lordforbid that I should sin against him by no longer praying for you. Instead, I will teach you what is good and right for you to do. 24 Obey the Lordand serve him faithfully with all your heart. Remember the great things he has done for you. 25 But if you continue to sin, you and your king will be destroyed."
