09:008:008 According to all the works which they have done since the day
           that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day,
           wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do
           they also unto thee.

09:008:009 Now therefore hearken unto their voice:  howbeit yet protest
           solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that
           shall reign over them.

09:008:010 And Samuel told all the words of the lord unto the people that
           asked of him a king.

09:008:011 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall
           reign over you:  He will take your sons, and appoint them for
           himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some
           shall run before his chariots.

09:008:012 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains
           over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap
           his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and
           instruments of his chariots.

09:008:013 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to
           be cooks, and to be bakers.

09:008:014 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your
           oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his
           servants.

09:008:015 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your
           vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.

09:008:016 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and
           your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his
           work.

09:008:017 He will take the tenth of your sheep:  and ye shall be his
           servants.

09:008:018 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye
           shall have chosen you; and the lord will not hear you in that
           day.

09:008:019 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel;
           and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;

09:008:020 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king
           may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.

09:008:021 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed
           them in the ears of the lord.

09:008:022 And the lord said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and
           make them a king.  And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go
           ye every man unto his city.

09:009:001 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son
           of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of
           Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.
