1 Samuel 12:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ But you must not disobey him. You must not say no to his commands. If you do, his power will be against you. That’s what happened to your people who lived before you.

¹⁶ “So stand still. Watch the great thing the Lord is about to do right here in front of you! ¹⁷ It’s time to gather in the wheat, isn’t it? I’ll call out to the Lord to send thunder and rain. Then you will realize what an evil thing you did in the sight of the Lord. You shouldn’t have asked for a king.”
