1 Samuel 8:13-22
-
13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
-
14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
-
15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
-
16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
-
17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.
-
18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
-
19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
-
20 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
-
21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
-
22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.
