1 Samuel 12:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 Behold, here I am: bear record of me before the Lord and before his anointed. [a]Whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I done wrong to? or whom have I hurt? or of whose hand have I received any bribe, to blind mine eyes therewith, and I will restore it you?
4 Then they said, Thou hast done us no wrong, nor hast hurt us, neither hast thou taken ought of any man’s hand.
5 And he said unto them, The Lord is witness against you, and his [b]Anointed is witness this day, that ye have found nought in mine hands. And they answered, He is witness.
