In context

18So Samuel called to the LORD, and on that day the LORD sent thunder and rain. As a result, all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.

19They pleaded with Samuel, “Pray to the LORD your God for your servants so that we will not die! For we have added to all our sins the evil of asking for a king.”

20“Do not be afraid,” Samuel replied. “Even though you have committed all this evil, do not turn aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart.

21Do not turn aside after worthless things that cannot profit you or deliver you, for they are empty.

22Indeed, for the sake of His great name, the LORD will not abandon His people, because He was pleased to make you His own.
