1 Samuel 12:23 in Context — 1 Samuel 12

21 No os apartéis en pos de las vanidades, que no aprovechan ni libran, porque son vanidades.

22 Pues Jehová no desamparará á su pueblo por su grande nombre; porque Jehová ha querido haceros pueblo suyo.

23 Así que, lejos sea de mí que peque yo contra Jehová cesando de rogar por vosotros; antes yo os enseñaré por el camino bueno y derecho.

24 Solamente temed á Jehová, y servidle de verdad con todo vuestro corazón, porque considerad cuán grandes cosas ha hecho con vosotros.

25 Mas si perseverareis en hacer mal, vosotros y vuestro rey pereceréis.
