Samuel's Charge To Israel

²¹ do not turn aside after vain things which cannot profit nor deliver, for they are vain. ²² For the Lord will not abandon His people on account of His great name, because the Lord has been pleased to make you a people for Himself. ²³ Moreover as for me, in no wise should I sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you, but I will teach you the good and the right way.
