1 Samuel 12:4

Samuel’s Farewell Address

3Here I am. Bear witness against me before the LORD and before His anointed: Whose ox or donkey have I taken? Whom have I cheated or oppressed? From whose hand have I accepted a bribe and closed my eyes? Tell me, and I will restore it to you.”4“You have not wronged us or oppressed us,” they replied, “nor have you taken anything from the hand of man.”
