*
And he said , "
This will be the behavior of the king who will reign over you :
He will take your sons and appoint them for his own chariots and to be his horsemen ,
and some will run before his chariots .
*
He will appoint captains over his thousands and captains over his fifties ,
will set some to plow his ground and reap his harvest ,
and some to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots .
*
He will take your daughters to be perfumers ,
cooks ,
and bakers .
*
And he will take the best of your fields ,
your vineyards ,
and your olive groves ,
and give them to his servants .
*
He will take a tenth of your grain and your vintage ,
and give it to his officers and servants .
*
And he will take your male servants ,
your female servants ,
your finest young men ,
and your donkeys ,
and put them to his work .
*
He will take a tenth of your sheep .
And you will be his servants .
*
And you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves ,
and the LORD will not hear you in that day ."
