16 Even now, (A)take your stand and see this great thing which Yahweh will do before your eyes. 17 (B)Is it not the wheat harvest today? (C)I will call to Yahweh, that He may send [a]thunder and rain. Then you will know and see that (D)your wickedness is great which you have done in the eyes of Yahweh by asking for yourselves a king.” 18 So Samuel called to Yahweh, and Yahweh sent [b]thunder and rain that day; and (E)all the people greatly feared Yahweh and Samuel.
