1 Samuel 12:21-23

Darby Translation

²¹ and turn ye not aside; for [it would be] after vain things which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.

²² For Jehovah will not cast away his people for his great name's sake; because it has pleased Jehovah to make you his people.

²³ Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against Jehovah in ceasing to pray for you; and I will teach you the good and right way.
