1 Samuel 8:5 BBE

³  And his sons did not go in his ways, but moved by the love of money took rewards, and were not upright in judging.

⁴  Then all the responsible men of Israel got together and went to Samuel at Ramah,

⁵  And said to him, See now, you are old, and your sons do not go in your ways: give us a king now to be our judge, so that we may be like the other nations.

⁶  But Samuel was not pleased when they said to him, Give us a king to be our judge. And Samuel made prayer to the Lord.

⁷  And the Lord said to Samuel, Give ear to the voice of the people and what they say to you: they have not been turned away from you, but they have been turned away from me, not desiring me to be king over them.
