1. Then Samuel said to all Israel, “I have listened to everything you have said to me and appointed a king over you.
2. And now, here is the king who will lead you. I am old and gray, but my sons are with you. I have led you from my youth until this day.
3. Here I am. Testify against me in front of the Lord and in front of his anointed king. Did I take anyone’s ox? Did I take anyone’s donkey? Did I cheat or oppress anyone? Did I take a bribe from anyone to look the other way? ⌊If so,⌋ I will give it all back.”
