1 Samuel 12:15-17

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁵ but if you will not heed 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 take your stand and see this great thing that the Lord will do before your eyes. ¹⁷ Is it not the wheat harvest today? I will call upon the Lord, that he may send thunder and rain; and you shall know and see that the wickedness that you have done in the sight of the Lord is great in demanding a king for yourselves.”
