Heb. Be not silent from us from crying.
1 Sam. 12:19‑24• 19And all the people said to Samuel, Pray to Jehovah thy God for thy servants, that we die not; for we have added to all our sins the wickedness to ask for ourselves a king.
20And Samuel said to the people, Fear not: *ye* have done all this wickedness; yet turn not aside from following Jehovah, and serve Jehovah with all your heart;
21and turn ye not aside; for it would be after vain things which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.
22For Jehovah will not cast away his people for his great name's sake; because it has pleased Jehovah to make you his people.
23Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against Jehovah in ceasing to pray for you; and I will teach you the good and right way.
24Only, fear Jehovah, and serve him in truth, with all your heart; for see how great things he has done for you.
(1 Sam. 12:19‑24)

Isa. 37:4• 4It may be Jehovah thy God will hear the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to reproach the living God, and will rebuke the words which Jehovah thy God hath heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is left. (Isa. 37:4)
;
Isa. 62:1,6‑7• 1For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be still, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a torch that burneth.
6I have set watchmen upon thy walls, Jerusalem; all the day and all the night they shall never hold their peace: ye that put Jehovah in remembrance, keep not silence,
7and give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
(Isa. 62:1,6‑7)
;
James 5:16• 16Confess therefore your offences to one another, and pray for one another, that ye may be healed. The fervent supplication of the righteous man has much power. (James 5:16)
 After their first defeat in Eli's day, they said, “Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of Shiloh unto us, that, when it cometh among us, it may save us out of the hand of our enemies.” Now they appeal to Samuel, “Cease not to cry unto the Lord our God for us, that He will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.” There is a gulf of difference between “it” and “He.” Moreover, they now say “The Lord our God.” The sense of relationship with Him has at last been recovered. (Ebenezer Indeed! by W.W. Fereday)
 They sense that their future and their salvation are dependent on Samuel's intercession. (1 Samuel 7 by H.L. Rossier)
