Read the excerpt from 1 Samuel 12.
And Samuel said to all Israel . . . .
“And now, behold the king whom you have chosen, whom you have requested, and behold, the Lord has appointed* a king over you.
“If you will fear the Lord, and serve Him, and hearken* to His voice, and you will not rebel against the commandments of the Lord, both you and the king who reigns over you, will be after the Lord your God.
“But, if you will not hearken to the voice of the Lord, and you will rebel against the commandments of the Lord, the Lord's hand will be against you and against your fathers.
“Even now, stand and see this great thing which the Lord will do before your eyes.
“Is it not wheat harvest today? I shall call to the Lord, and He will send thunder and rain, and you shall know and see, that your evil is great, which you have done in the eyes of the Lord, to ask for yourselves a king.”
And Samuel called to the Lord, and the Lord sent thunder and rain on that day, and all the people greatly feared the Lord and Samuel. . . .
And Samuel said to the people, “Fear not. You have done all this evil, but do not turn aside from following the Lord, and you shall serve the Lord with all your heart. . . .
“But, if you will do wrong, both you and your king will be destroyed.”
