1 Samuel 12:22

Samuel's Charge To Israel

²¹ Do not go after false gods and empty things. They cannot help you or save you. They are useless. 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 As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against Jehovah by no longer praying for you. Instead, I will teach you what is good and right for you to do.
