1 Samuel 12:20 in Context — 1 Samuel 12
18 Samuel invoqua l’Éternel, et l’Éternel envoya ce même jour du tonnerre et de la pluie. Tout le peuple eut une grande crainte de l’Éternel et de Samuel.
19 Et tout le peuple dit à Samuel: Prie l’Éternel, ton Dieu, pour tes serviteurs, afin que nous ne mourions pas; car nous avons ajouté à tous nos péchés le tort de demander pour nous un roi.
20 Samuel dit au peuple: N’ayez point de crainte! Vous avez fait tout ce mal; mais ne vous détournez pas de l’Éternel, et servez l’Éternel de tout votre cœur.
21 Ne vous en détournez pas; sinon, vous iriez après des choses de néant, qui n’apportent ni profit ni délivrance, parce que ce sont des choses de néant.
22 L’Éternel n’abandonnera point son peuple, à cause de son grand nom, car l’Éternel a résolu de faire de vous son peuple.
