1 Samuel 8:7-9

7And Jehovah saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, Hearken unto the voiceH6963 of the peopleH5971 in all that they sayH559 unto thee; for they have not rejectedH3988 thee, but they have rejectedH3988 me, that I should not be kingH4427 over them. 8According to all the worksH4639 which they have done since the dayH3117 that I broughtH5927 them up out of EgyptH4714 even unto this dayH3117, in that they have forsaken me, and servedH5647 otherH312 godsH430, soH3651 do they alsoH1571 unto thee. 9NowH6258 thereforeH6258 hearken unto their voiceH6963: howbeit thou shalt protest solemnly unto them, and shalt show them the manner of the kingH4428 that shall reignH4427 over them.
