וַיֹּ֨אמֶר שְׁמוּאֵ֤ל אֶל־הָעָם֙ אַל־תִּירָ֔אוּ אַתֶּ֣ם עֲשִׂיתֶ֔ם אֵ֥ת כָּל־הָרָעָ֖ה הַזֹּ֑את אַ֗ךְ אַל־תָּס֙וּרוּ֙ מֵאַחֲרֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה וַעֲבַדְתֶּ֥ם אֶת־יְהוָ֖ה בְּכָל־לְבַבְכֶֽם׃
撒母耳對百姓說：「不要懼怕。你們確實行了這一切惡事，只是不可轉離、不再跟從永恆者，要全心事奉永恆者。
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“Samuel said to the people, do not fear” [12:20]. Samuel said, do not be afraid, but be pious and serve God with your whole heart. Do not go after the foreign gods that do not help you and cannot protect you.
