1 Samuel 12:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶ “So now take a stand! Look at this awesome thing the Lord is doing. ¹⁷ Isn’t the wheat harvest today? I will call upon the Lord to send thunder and rain. Then you will know and will see for yourselves what great evil you’ve done in the Lord’s eyes by asking for a king.”

¹⁸ Samuel called upon the Lord, and God sent thunder and rain on that very day. Then all the people were in awe of the Lord and Samuel.
