1 Samuel 12:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 ¶ And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not, (ye have indeed done all this wickedness, [a]yet depart not from following the Lord, but serve the Lord with all your heart,
21 Neither turn ye back: for that should be after vain things which cannot profit you, nor deliver you, for they are but vanity.)
22 For the Lord will not forsake his people for his great Name’s sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you [b]his people.
