1 Samuel 12:13-25

Now therefore behold the king
<04428>

whom ye have chosen
<0977> (8804)_,

[and] whom ye have desired
<07592> (8804)_!

and, behold, the LORD
<03068>

hath set
<05414> (8804)

a king
<04428>

over you.

If ye will fear
<03372> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and serve
<05647> (8804)

him, and obey
<08085> (8804)

his voice
<06963>_,

and not rebel
<04784> (8686)

against the commandment
<06310>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

then shall both ye and also the king
<04428>

that reigneth
<04427> (8804)

over you continue following
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_:

{commandment: Heb. mouth} {continue...: Heb. be after}

But if ye will not obey
<08085> (8799)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

but rebel
<04784> (8804)

against the commandment
<06310>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

then shall the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>

be against you, as [it was] against your fathers
<01>_.

Now therefore
<01571>

stand
<03320> (8690)

and see
<07200> (8798)

this great
<01419>

thing
<01697>_,

which the LORD
<03068>

will do
<06213> (8802)

before your eyes
<05869>_.

[Is it] not wheat
<02406>

harvest
<07105>

to day
<03117>_?

I will call
<07121> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and he shall send
<05414> (8799)

thunder
<06963>

and rain
<04306>_;

that ye may perceive
<03045> (8798)

and see
<07200> (8798)

that your wickedness
<07451>

[is] great
<07227>_,

which ye have done
<06213> (8804)

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

in asking
<07592> (8800)

you a king
<04428>_.

So Samuel
<08050>

called
<07121> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_;

and the LORD
<03068>

sent
<05414> (8799)

thunder
<06963>

and rain
<04306>

that day
<03117>_:

and all the people
<05971>

greatly
<03966>

feared
<03372> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

and Samuel
<08050>_.

And all the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Samuel
<08050>_,

Pray
<06419> (8690)

for thy servants
<05650>

unto the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

that we die
<04191> (8799)

not: for we have added
<03254> (8804)

unto all our sins
<02403>

[this] evil
<07451>_,

to ask
<07592> (8800)

us a king
<04428>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the people
<05971>_,

Fear
<03372> (8799)

not: ye have done
<06213> (8804)

all this wickedness
<07451>_:

yet turn not aside
<05493> (8799)

from following
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>_,

but serve
<05647> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

with all your heart
<03824>_;

And turn ye not aside
<05493> (8799)_:

for [then should ye go] after
<0310>

vain
<08414>

[things], which cannot profit
<03276> (8686)

nor deliver
<05337> (8686)_;

for they [are] vain
<08414>_.

For the LORD
<03068>

will not forsake
<05203> (8799)

his people
<05971>

for his great
<01419>

name's
<08034>

sake: because it hath pleased
<02974> (8689)

the LORD
<03068>

to make
<06213> (8800)

you his people
<05971>_.

Moreover as for me
<0595>_,

God forbid
<02486>

that I should sin
<02398> (8800)

against the LORD
<03068>

in ceasing
<02308> (8800)

to pray
<06419> (8692)

for you: but I will teach
<03384> (8689)

you the good
<02896>

and the right
<03477>

way
<01870>_:

{in: Heb. from}

Only fear
<03372> (8798)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and serve
<05647> (8804)

him in truth
<0571>

with all your heart
<03824>_:

for consider
<07200> (8798)

how great [things] he hath done
<01431> (8689)

for you. {how...: or, what a great thing}

But if ye shall still
<07489> (8687)

do wickedly
<07489> (8686)_,

ye shall be consumed
<05595> (8735)_,

both ye and your king
<04428>_.
