1 Samuel 12:22
World English Bible (WEB)
For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased the LORD to make you a people for himself.
In context
20 Samuel said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. You have indeed done all this evil; yet don’t turn away from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart.
21 Don’t turn away to go after vain things which can’t profit or deliver, for they are vain.
22 For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased the LORD to make you a people for himself.
23 Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you; but I will instruct you in the good and the right way.
24 Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things he has done for you.
