1 Samuel 12

1 and to say Samuel to(wards) all Israel behold to hear: obey in/on/with voice your to/for all which to say to/for me and to reign upon you king

And Samuel said unto all Israel, Lo! I have hearkened unto your voice, in all that ye said to me, —and have set over you a king.

2 and now behold [the] king to go: walk to/for face: before your and I be old and be gray and son: child my behold they with you and I to go: walk to/for face: before your from youth my till [the] day [the] this

Now, therefore, lo! the king going to and fro before you, But, I, am old and grey-headed, and, my sons, lo! they are with you, —But, I, have gone to and fro before you from my youth until this day.

3 look! I to answer in/on/with me before LORD and before anointed his [obj] cattle who? to take: take and donkey who? to take: take and [obj] who? to oppress [obj] who? to crush and from hand who? to take: take ransom and to conceal eye my in/on/with him and to return: rescue to/for you

Behold me! testify against me, before Yahweh, and before his Anointed—Whose, ox, have I taken? or whose, ass, have I taken? or whom have I oppressed? Whom have I crushed? or at whose, hands, have I taken a bribe, to cover up mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it unto you.

4 and to say not to oppress us and not to crush us and not to take: take from hand man: anyone anything

And they said, Thou hast not oppressed us, neither hast thou crushed us, —neither hast thou taken, at the hand of any man, any thing.

5 and to say to(wards) them witness LORD in/on/with you and witness anointed his [the] day: today [the] this for not to find in/on/with hand my anything and to say witness

And he said unto them—Witness, is Yahweh against you, and, witness, is his Anointed, this day, that ye have not found in my hand, any thing! And they said: Witness!

6 and to say Samuel to(wards) [the] people LORD which to make [obj] Moses and [obj] Aaron and which to ascend: establish [obj] father your from land: country/planet Egypt

And Samuel said unto the people: Witness, is Yahweh, who wrought with Moses and with Aaron, and who brought up your fathers out of the land of Egypt.

7 and now to stand and to judge with you to/for face: before LORD [obj] all righteousness LORD which to make: do with you and with father your

Now, therefore, take your stand and let me plead with you, before Yahweh, —and tell you all the righteous acts of Yahweh, which he wrought with you, and with your fathers:

8 like/as as which to come (in): come Jacob Egypt and to cry out father your to(wards) LORD and to send: depart LORD [obj] Moses and [obj] Aaron and to come out: send [obj] father your from Egypt and to dwell them in/on/with place [the] this

How that, when Jacob had come into Egypt, —and your fathers had made outcry unto Yahweh, then Yahweh sent Moses and Aaron, and they brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and he caused them to dwell in this place;

9 and to forget [obj] LORD God their and to sell [obj] them in/on/with hand: power Sisera ruler army Hazor and in/on/with hand: power Philistine and in/on/with hand: power king Moab and to fight in/on/with them

And, when they forgat Yahweh their God, he sold them into the hand of Sisera, prince of the host of Jabin, king of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fought against them;

10 and to cry out to(wards) LORD (and to say *Q(K)*) to sin for to leave: forsake [obj] LORD and to serve [obj] [the] Baal and [obj] [the] Ashtaroth and now to rescue us from hand: power enemy our and to serve you

But, when they made outcry unto Yahweh and said—We have sinned, in that we have forsaken Yahweh, and have served the Baals and the Ashtoreths, —now, therefore, deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, that we may serve thee,

11 and to send: depart LORD [obj] Jerubbaal and [obj] Barak and [obj] Jephthah and [obj] Samuel and to rescue [obj] you from hand: power enemy your from around: side and to dwell security

then Yahweh sent Jerubbaal and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, —and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies, on every side, and ye dwelt in safety.

12 and to see: see for Nahash king son: descendant/people Ammon to come (in): come upon you and to say to/for me not for king to reign upon us and LORD God your king your

But, when ye saw that, Nahash king of the sons of Ammon, came upon you, then said ye unto me, Nay! but, a king, shall reign over us, when, Yahweh your God, was your king!

13 and now behold [the] king which to choose which to ask and behold to give: put LORD upon you king

Now, therefore, lo! the king whom ye have chosen, for whom ye have asked, —lo! therefore, Yahweh hath set over you a king.

14 if to fear: revere [obj] LORD and to serve [obj] him and to hear: obey in/on/with voice his and not to rebel [obj] lip: word LORD and to be also you(m. p.) and also [the] king which to reign upon you after LORD God your

If ye will revere Yahweh, and serve him, and hearken unto his voice, and not rebel against the bidding of Yahweh, then shall, both ye and your king that reigneth over you, continue to follow after Yahweh your God.

15 and if not to hear: obey in/on/with voice LORD and to rebel [obj] lip: word LORD and to be hand: power LORD in/on/with you and in/on/with father your

But, if ye hearken not unto the voice of Yahweh, but rebel against the bidding of Yahweh, then will the hand of Yahweh continue to be against you, and against your fathers.

16 also now to stand and to see: see [obj] [the] word: thing [the] great: large [the] this which LORD to make: do to/for eye: before(the eyes) your

Even now, stand still and see this great thing, —which Yahweh is about to do before your eyes:

17 not harvest wheat [the] day to call: call to to(wards) LORD and to give: give voice: thunder and rain and to know and to see: see for distress: evil your many which to make: do in/on/with eye: seeing LORD to/for to ask to/for you king

Is it not wheat harvest, to-day? I will cry unto Yahweh, that he may give forth thunderings and rain, —know ye then and see, that, your wrong, is great which ye have done in the sight of Yahweh, in asking for yourselves, a king.

18 and to call: call to Samuel to(wards) LORD and to give: give LORD voice: thunder and rain in/on/with day [the] he/she/it and to fear: revere all [the] people much [obj] LORD and [obj] Samuel

So Samuel cried unto Yahweh, and Yahweh gave forth thunderings and rain, on that day, —and all the people greatly feared Yahweh, and Samuel.

19 and to say all [the] people to(wards) Samuel to pray about/through/for servant/slave your to(wards) LORD God your and not to die for to add upon all sin our distress: evil to/for to ask to/for us king

And all the people said unto Samuel—Pray for thy servants, unto Yahweh thy God, and let it not be that we die, —For we have added, to all our sins, a wrong, in asking for ourselves a king.

20 and to say Samuel to(wards) [the] people not to fear you(m. p.) to make: do [obj] all [the] distress: evil [the] this surely not to turn aside: turn aside from after LORD and to serve [obj] LORD in/on/with all heart your

Then said Samuel unto the people—Do not fear, ye, have done all this wrong, —nevertheless, do not turn aside from following Yahweh, but serve Yahweh, with all your heart;

21 and not to turn aside: turn aside for after [the] formlessness which not to gain and not to rescue for formlessness they(masc.)

and turn not aside after vanities, that can neither profit nor deliver, because, vanities, they are.

22 for not to leave LORD [obj] people his in/on/with for the sake of name his [the] great: large for be willing LORD to/for to make [obj] you to/for him to/for people

For Yahweh will not give up his people, because of his great name, for Yahweh was minded to make you his people.

23 also I forbid to/for me from to sin to/for LORD from to cease to/for to pray about/through/for you and to show [obj] you in/on/with way: conduct [the] pleasant and [the] upright

As for me also, far be it from me, that I should sin against Yahweh, by ceasing to pray for you, —but I will direct you, in the good and right way.

24 surely to fear: revere [obj] LORD and to serve [obj] him in/on/with truth: faithful in/on/with all heart your for to see: examine [obj] which to magnify with you

Only, revere Yahweh, and serve him in truth, with all your heart, —for see, what great things he hath done with you.

25 and if be evil be evil also you(m. p.) also king your to snatch

But, if ye, will do wrong, both ye and your king shall be swept away.
