1 Samuel 12:12

10 Then they cried out to the Lord, and said, ^a‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken the Lord ^band served the Baals and Ashtoreths; but now deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we will serve You.’

11 And the Lord sent Jerubbaal, Bedan, ^aJephthah, and ^bSamuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side; and you dwelt in safety.

12 And when you saw that ^aNahash king of the Ammonites came against you, ^byou said to me, ‘No, but a king shall reign over us,’ when ^cthe Lord your God was your king.

13 “Now therefore, ^ahere is the king ^bwhom you have chosen and whom you have desired. And take note, ^cthe Lord has set a king over you.

14 If you ^afear the Lord and serve Him and obey His voice, and do not rebel against the commandment of the Lord, then both you and the king who reigns over you will continue following the Lord your God.
