1 Samuel 12:22 in Context — 1 Samuel 12
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.
23 Loin de moi aussi de pécher contre l’Éternel, de cesser de prier pour vous! Je vous enseignerai le bon et le droit chemin.
24 Craignez seulement l’Éternel, et servez-le fidèlement de tout votre cœur; car voyez quelle puissance il déploie parmi vous.
