Chapter 12
22For 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. 23Furthermore, as for me, far be it from me that I would sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you; but I will instruct you in the good and right way. 24Only fear the Lord and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you. 25But if you still do evil, both you and your king will be swept away.'King James Version

22For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people. 23Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way: 24Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you. 25But if ye shall still do wickedly, ye shall be consumed, both ye and your king.Christian Standard Bible
23"As for me, I vow that I will not sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you. I will teach you the good and right way.
24Above all, fear the Lord and worship him faithfully with all your heart; consider the great things he has done for you.
25However, if you continue to do what is evil, both you and your king will be swept away."
New Living Translation
23As for me, I will certainly not sin against the Lord by ending my prayers for you. And I will continue to teach you what is good and right.
24But be sure to fear the Lord and faithfully serve him. Think of all the wonderful things he has done for you.
25But if you continue to sin, you and your king will be swept away.'
