1 Samuel 12:22

So the sons of Israel said to Samuel, “Do not cease to cry out to Yahweh our God for us, that He may save us from the hand of the Philistines.”

“May Yahweh our God be with us, as He was with our fathers; may He not forsake us or abandon us,

For Yahweh will not abandon His people, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.

“For My own sake, for My own sake, I will act; For how can My name be profaned? And My glory I will not give to another.

I say then, has God rejected His people? May it never be! For I too am an Israelite, a seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
