lesserot@1Samuel:8:1 @ And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he appointed his sons judges over Israel.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:2 @ And the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second Abiyah: they judged in Beersheba.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:3 @ But his sons walked not in his ways, and they inclined after their own advantage, and took bribes, and perverted justice.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:4 @ Then did all the elders of Israel assemble themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,
lesserot@1Samuel:8:5 @ And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons have not walked in thy ways: now appoint for us a king to judge us like all the nations.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:6 @ But the thing was displeasing in the eyes of Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the Lord.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:7 @ And the Lord said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they may say unto thee; for not thee have they rejected, but me have they rejected, that I should not reign over them.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:8 @ In accordance with all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even until this day, when they forsook me, and served other gods: so do they also unto thee.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:9 @ And now hearken unto their voice: nevertheless thou must still solemnly forewarn them, and tell them the manner of the king that will reign over them.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:10 @ And Samuel said all the words of the Lord unto the people that had asked of him a king.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:11 @ And he said, This will be the manner of the king that will reign over you: Your sons will he take, and appoint them for himself with his chariots, and among his horsemen; and they will have to run before his chariot;
lesserot@1Samuel:8:12 @ And to appoint for himself captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and to plough his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and the instruments of his chariots.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:13 @ And your daughters will he take for ointment makers, and for cooks, and for bakers.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:14 @ And your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, yea the best, will he take, and give them to his servants.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:15 @ And of your seeds, and of your vineyards will he take the tenth, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:16 @ And your menservants, and your maidservants, and your best young men, and your asses will he take, and employ for his work.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:17 @ Of your flocks will he take the tenth: and ye yourselves will become his servants.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:18 @ And ye will cry out on that day because of your king whom ye will have chosen for yourselves, but the Lord will not answer you on that day.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:19 @ Nevertheless the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel; and they said, No; but a king shall be over us;
lesserot@1Samuel:8:20 @ That we also may ourselves be like all the nations: and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:21 @ And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he spoke them before the ears of the Lord.
lesserot@1Samuel:8:22 @ And the Lord said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and appoint them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.
