1 Samuel 12:16-20
16NowH6258, thereforeH1571, present yourselvesH3320 and seeH7200 thisH2088 greatH1419 thingH1697 thatH834 the LORDH3068 will doH6213 before your eyesH5869. 17Is it notH3808 the wheatH2406 harvestH7105 todayH3117? I will callH7121 onH413 the LORDH3068 to sendH5414 thunderH6963 and rainH4306, so that you will knowH3045 and seeH7200H3588 what a greatH7227 evilH7451 you have committedH6213 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 by askingH7592 for a kingH4428.”
18So SamuelH8050 calledH7121 toH413 the LORDH3068, and on thatH1931 dayH3117 the LORDH3068 sentH5414 thunderH6963 and rainH4306.
As a result, allH3605 the peopleH5971 greatlyH3966 fearedH3372 the LORDH3068 andH853 SamuelH8050. 19TheyH3605H5971 pleadedH559 withH413 SamuelH8050, “PrayH6419 toH413 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 forH1157 your servantsH5650 so that we will notH408 dieH4191! ForH3588 we have addedH3254 toH5921 allH3605 our sinsH2403 the evilH7451 of askingH7592 for a kingH4428.”
20“Do notH408 be afraidH3372,” SamuelH8050H413H5971 repliedH559. “Even though youH859 have committedH6213 allH3605 thisH2063H389 evilH7451, do notH408 turn asideH5493 from followingH310 the LORDH3068, but serveH5647 the LORDH3068 with allH3605 your heartH3824.
