19 All the people pleaded with Samuel, |Pray to the LORD your God for us so that we will not die. We have added [another] evil thing to all our other sins by asking for a king.|

20 |Don't be afraid,| Samuel told the people. |You did do all these evil things. But don't turn away from the LORD. Instead, serve the LORD wholeheartedly.
