1 Samuel 8:5 WEB

³  His sons didn't walk in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted justice.

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

⁵  and they said to him, Behold, you are old, and your sons don't walk in your 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. Samuel prayed to Yahweh.

⁷  Yahweh said to Samuel, Listen to the voice of the people in all that they tell you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them.
