1 Samuel 8:5 WBT

³  And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.

⁴  Then all the elders of Israel assembled, and came to Samuel to Ramah,

⁵  And said to 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 to the LORD.

⁷  And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken to the voice of the people in all that they say to thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
