1 Samuel 12:11-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹¹ And the Lord sent Jerobaal, and Badan, and Jephte, and Samuel, and delivered you from the hand of your enemies round about, and you dwelt securely.

¹² But seeing that Naas king of the children of Ammon was come against you, you said to me: Nay, but a king shall reign over us: whereas the Lord your God was your king.

¹³ Now therefore your king is here, whom you have chosen and desired: Behold the Lord hath given you a king.
