1 Samuel 8:14-22

14And your fieldsH7704, and your vineyardsH3754, and your oliveyards, the bestH2896, will he takeH3947 and giveH5414 to his servantsH5650. 15And he will takeH6237 the tenthH6237 of your seedH2233 and of your vineyardsH3754, and giveH5414 to his chamberlains and to his servantsH5650. 16And he will takeH3947 your bondmen, and your bondwomen, and your comeliest youngH970 menH970, and your asses, and use them for his workH4399. 17He will take the tenthH6237 of your sheepH6629. And ye shall beH1961 his servantsH5650. 18And ye shall cryH2199 out in that dayH3117 because of your kingH4428 whom ye have chosenH977; and Jehovah will not answerH6030 you in that dayH3117. 19And the peopleH5971 refusedH3985 to hearken to the voiceH6963 of SamuelH8050; and they saidH559, No, but there shall beH1961 a kingH4428 over us, 20that we alsoH1571 may beH1961 like all the nationsH1471; and our kingH4428 shall judgeH8199 us, and goH3318 out before us, and conduct our warsH4421. 21And SamuelH8050 heardH8085 all the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971, and he repeated them in the earsH241 of Jehovah. 22And Jehovah saidH559 to SamuelH8050, Hearken unto their voiceH6963, and makeH8085 them a kingH4428. And SamuelH8050 saidH559 to the menH376 of IsraelH3478, Go ye every manH376 to his cityH5892.
