1 Samuel 12:14-16

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁴ If you will fear the Lord and serve him and hearken to his voice and not rebel against the commandment of the Lord, and if both you and the king who reigns over you will follow the Lord your God, it will be well; ¹⁵ but if you will not hearken to the voice of the Lord, but rebel against the commandment of the Lord, then the hand of the Lord will be against you and your king.^{[a] 16} Now therefore stand still and see this great thing, which the Lord will do before your eyes.
