1 Samuel 8:6 ASV

⁴  Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah;

⁵  and they said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.

⁶  But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto Jehovah.

⁷  And Jehovah said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee; for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them.

⁸  According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, in that they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
