  1. 20And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: ye have indeed done all this evil; yet turn not aside from following Jehovah, but serve Jehovah with all your heart:
  2. 21and turn ye not aside; for then would ye go after vain things which cannot profit nor deliver, for they are vain.

  5. 24Only fear Jehovah, and serve him in truth with all your heart; for consider how great things he hath done for you.
