1 Samuel 12:3-5

Context
12:3 Here I am. Bring a charge against me before the Lord and before his chosen king. 1  Whose ox have I taken? Whose donkey have I taken? Whom have I wronged? Whom have I oppressed? From whose hand have I taken a bribe so that I would overlook something? Tell me, 2  and I will return it to you!”

12:4 They replied, “You have not wronged us or oppressed us. You have not taken anything from the hand of anyone.” 12:5 He said to them, “The Lord is witness against you, and his chosen king 3  is witness this day, that you have not found any reason to accuse me.” 4  They said, “He is witness!”
