1 Samuel 12:17-19

New International Version

¹⁷ Is it not wheat harvest^(A) now? I will call^(B) on the Lord to send thunder^(C) and rain.^(D) And you will realize what an evil^(E) thing you did in the eyes of the Lord when you asked for a king.”

¹⁸ Then Samuel called on the Lord,^(F) and that same day the Lord sent thunder and rain. So all the people stood in awe^(G) of the Lord and of Samuel.

¹⁹ The people all said to Samuel, “Pray^(H) to the Lord your God for your servants so that we will not die,^(I) for we have added to all our other sins the evil of asking for a king.”
