1 Samuel 12:13 in Context — 1 Samuel 12

11 Então o SENHOR enviou a Jerubaal, e a Bedã, e a Jefté, e a Samuel, e vos livrou da mão de vossos inimigos ao redor, e habitastes seguros.

12 E havendo visto que Naás rei dos filhos de Amom vinha contra vós, me dissestes: Não, mas sim rei reinará sobre nós; sendo vosso rei o SENHOR vosso Deus.

13 Agora, pois, vede aqui vosso rei que haveis escolhido, o qual pedistes; já vedes que o SENHOR pôs sobre vós rei.

14 Se temerdes ao SENHOR e o servirdes, e ouvirdes sua voz, e não fordes rebeldes à palavra do SENHOR, tanto vós como o rei que rainha sobre vós, seguireis ao SENHOR vosso Deus.

15 Mas se não ouvirdes a voz do SENHOR, e se fordes rebeldes às palavras do SENHOR, a mão do SENHOR será contra vós como contra vossos pais.
