1 Samuel 12:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Samuel said to all Israel: "I have done everything you wanted me to do. I have put a king over you.
2 Now you have a king to lead you. I am old and gray, but my sons are here with you. I have been your leader since I was young.
3 Here I am. If I have done anything wrong, you must tell these things to the Lord and his chosen king. Did I steal anyone's cow or donkey? Did I hurt or cheat anyone? Did I ever take money, or even a pair of sandals, to do something wrong? If I did any of these things, I will make it right."
4 The Israelites answered, "No, you never did anything bad to us. You never cheated us or took things from us."
5 Samuel said to the Israelites, "The Lord and his chosen king are witnesses today. They heard what you said. They know that you could find nothing wrong with me." The people answered, "Yes, the Lord is our witness!"
6 Then Samuel said to the people, "The Lord has seen what happened. The Lord is the one who chose Moses and Aaron and brought your ancestors out of Egypt.
7 Now, stand there, and I will tell you about the good things the Lord did for you and your ancestors.
8 "Jacob went to Egypt. Later, the Egyptians made life hard for his descendants. So they cried to the Lord for help. The Lord sent Moses and Aaron, and they took your ancestors out of Egypt and led them to live in this place.
9 "But your ancestors forgot the Lord their God. So he let them become the slaves of Sisera, the commander of the army at Hazor. Then the Lord let them become the slaves of the Philistines and the king of Moab. They all fought against your ancestors.
10 But your ancestors cried to the Lord for help. They said, 'We have sinned. We left the Lord, and we served the false gods Baal and Ashtoreth. But now save us from our enemies, and we will serve you.'
11 "So the Lord sent Jerub Baal (Gideon), Barak, Jephthah, and Samuel. He saved you from your enemies around you, and you lived in safety.
12 But then you saw King Nahash of the Ammonites coming to fight against you. You said, 'No, we want a king to rule over us!' You said that, even though the Lord your God was already your king.
13 Now, here is the king you chose. The Lord put this king over you.
14 You must fear and respect the Lord. You must serve him and obey his commands. You must not turn against him. You and the king ruling over you must follow the Lord your God. If you do, God will save you.
15 But if you don't obey the Lord, and if you turn against him, he will be against you. The Lord will destroy you and your king.
16 "Now stand still and see the great thing the Lord will do before your eyes.
17 Now is the time of the wheat harvest. I will pray to the Lord and ask him to send thunder and rain. Then you will know you did a very bad thing against the Lord when you asked for a king."
18 So Samuel prayed to the Lord. That same day the Lord sent thunder and rain. And the people became very afraid of the Lord and Samuel.
19 All the people said to Samuel, "Pray to the Lord your God for us, your servants. Don't let us die! We have sinned many times. And now we have added to these sins�we have asked for a king."
20 Samuel answered, "Don't be afraid. It is true that you did all these bad things, but don't stop following the Lord. Serve the Lord with all your heart.
21 Idols are only statues�they can't help you. So don't worship them. Idols can't help you or save you. They are nothing!
22 "But the Lord won't leave his people. No, the Lord was pleased to make you his own people. So for his own good name, he won't leave you.
23 And as for me, I would never stop praying for you. If I stopped praying for you, I would be sinning against the Lord. I will continue to teach you the right way to live a good life.
24 But you must honor the Lord. You must sincerely serve the Lord with all your heart. Remember the wonderful things he did for you.
25 But if you are stubborn and do evil, God will throw you and your king away� like sweeping dirt out with a broom."
1 And Samuel H8050 said H559 unto H413 all H3605 Israel, H3478 Behold, H2009 I have hearkened H8085 unto your voice H6963 in all H3605 that H834 ye said H559 unto me , and have made a king H4427 H4428 over H5921 you.
2 And now, H6258 behold, H2009 the king H4428 walketh H1980 before H6440 you : and I H589 am old H2204 and grayheaded; H7867 and, behold, H2009 my sons H1121 are with H854 you : and I H589 have walked H1980 before H6440 you from my childhood H4480 H5271 unto H5704 this H2088 day. H3117
3 Behold H2009 , here I am : witness H6030 against me before H5048 the LORD, H3068 and before H5048 his anointed: H4899 whose ox H7794 have I taken H3947 ? or whose H4310 ass H2543 have I taken H3947 ? or whom H4310 have I defrauded H6231 ? H853 whom H4310 have I oppressed H7533 ? or of whose hand H4480 H3027 H4310 have I received H3947 any bribe H3724 to blind H5956 mine eyes H5869 therewith? and I will restore H7725 it you.
4 And they said, H559 Thou hast not H3808 defrauded H6231 us, nor H3808 oppressed H7533 us, neither H3808 hast thou taken H3947 aught H3972 of any man's hand H4480 H3027. H376
5 And he said H559 unto H413 them , The LORD H3068 is witness H5707 against you , and his anointed H4899 is witness H5707 this H2088 day, H3117 that H3588 ye have not H3808 found H4672 aught H3972 in my hand. H3027 And they answered, H559 He is witness. H5707
6 And Samuel H8050 said H559 unto H413 the people, H5971 It is the LORD H3068 that H834 advanced H6213 H853 Moses H4872 and Aaron, H175 and that H834 brought H5927 H853 your fathers H1 up out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt. H4714
7 Now H6258 therefore stand still, H3320 that I may reason H8199 with H854 you before H6440 the LORD H3068 of H853 all H3605 the righteous acts H6666 of the LORD, H3068 which H834 he did H6213 to H854 you and to H854 your fathers. H1
8 When H834 Jacob H3290 was come H935 into Egypt, H4714 and your fathers H1 cried H2199 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 then the LORD H3068 sent H7971 H853 Moses H4872 and Aaron, H175 which brought forth H3318 H853 your fathers H1 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 , and made them dwell H3427 in this H2088 place. H4725
9 And when they forgot H7911 H853 the LORD H3068 their God, H430 he sold H4376 them into the hand H3027 of Sisera, H5516 captain H8269 of the host H6635 of Hazor, H2674 and into the hand H3027 of the Philistines, H6430 and into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Moab, H4124 and they fought H3898 against them.
10 And they cried H2199 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 and said, H559 We have sinned, H2398 because H3588 we have forsaken H5800 H853 the LORD, H3068 and have served H5647 H853 Baalim H1168 and Ashtaroth: H6252 but now H6258 deliver H5337 us out of the hand H4480 H3027 of our enemies, H341 and we will serve H5647 thee.
11 And the LORD H3068 sent H7971 H853 Jerubbaal, H3378 and Bedan, H917 and Jephthah, H3316 and Samuel, H8050 and delivered H5337 you out of the hand H4480 H3027 of your enemies H341 on every side H4480 H5439 , and ye dwelled H3427 safe. H983
12 And when ye saw H7200 that H3588 Nahash H5176 the king H4428 of the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 came H935 against H5921 you , ye said H559 unto me, Nay; H3808 but H3588 a king H4428 shall reign H4427 over H5921 us : when the LORD H3068 your God H430 was your king. H4428
13 Now H6258 therefore behold H2009 the king H4428 whom H834 ye have chosen, H977 and whom H834 ye have desired H7592 ! and, behold, H2009 the LORD H3068 hath set H5414 a king H4428 over H5921 you.
14 If H518 ye will fear H3372 H853 the LORD, H3068 and serve H5647 him , and obey H8085 his voice, H6963 and not H3808 rebel against H4784 H853 the commandment H6310 of the LORD, H3068 then shall both H1571 ye H859 and also H1571 the king H4428 that H834 reigneth H4427 over H5921 you continue H1961 following H310 the LORD H3068 your God: H430
15 But if H518 ye will not H3808 obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD, H3068 but rebel against H4784 H853 the commandment H6310 of the LORD, H3068 then shall the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 be H1961 against you , as it was against your fathers. H1
16 Now H6258 therefore H1571 stand H3320 and see H7200 H853 this H2088 great H1419 thing, H1697 which H834 the LORD H3068 will do H6213 before your eyes. H5869
17 Is it not H3808 wheat H2406 harvest H7105 today H3117 ? I will call H7121 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 and he shall send H5414 thunder H6963 and rain; H4306 that ye may perceive H3045 and see H7200 that H3588 your wickedness H7451 is great, H7227 which H834 ye have done H6213 in the sight H5869 of the LORD, H3068 in asking H7592 you a king. H4428
18 So Samuel H8050 called H7121 unto H413 the LORD; H3068 and the LORD H3068 sent H5414 thunder H6963 and rain H4306 that H1931 day: H3117 and all H3605 the people H5971 greatly H3966 feared H3372 H853 the LORD H3068 and Samuel. H8050
19 And all H3605 the people H5971 said H559 unto H413 Samuel, H8050 Pray H6419 for H1157 thy servants H5650 unto H413 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 that we die H4191 not: H408 for H3588 we have added H3254 unto H5921 all H3605 our sins H2403 this evil, H7451 to ask H7592 us a king. H4428
20 And Samuel H8050 said H559 unto H413 the people, H5971 Fear H3372 not: H408 ye H859 have done H6213 H853 all H3605 this H2063 wickedness: H7451 yet H389 turn not aside H408 H5493 from following H4480 H310 the LORD, H3068 but serve H5647 H853 the LORD H3068 with all H3605 your heart; H3824
21 And turn ye not aside H3808 H5493 : for H3588 then should ye go after H310 vain H8414 things , which H834 cannot H3808 profit H3276 nor H3808 deliver; H5337 for H3588 they H1992 are vain. H8414
22 For H3588 the LORD H3068 will not H3808 forsake H5203 H853 his people H5971 for his great H1419 name's H8034 sake: H5668 because H3588 it hath pleased H2974 the LORD H3068 to make H6213 you his people. H5971
23 Moreover H1571 as for me, H595 God forbid H486 that I should sin H4480 H2398 against the LORD H3068 in ceasing H4480 H2308 to pray H6419 for H1157 you : but I will teach H3384 you the good H2896 and the right H3477 way: H1870
24 Only H389 fear H3372 H853 the LORD, H3068 and serve H5647 him in truth H571 with all H3605 your heart: H3824 for H3588 consider H7200 H853 how H834 great things he hath done H1431 for H5973 you.
25 But if H518 ye shall still do wickedly H7489 H7489 , ye shall be consumed, H5595 both H1571 ye H859 and H1571 your king. H4428
