The People Persist and God Consents

1 Samuel 8:19-22

But the people would not heare the voyce of Samuel, but did say, Nay, but there shall be a King ouer vs.

And we also will be like all other nations, and our King shall iudge vs, and goe out before vs, and fight our battels.

Therefore when Samuel heard all ye wordes of ye people, he rehearsed the in ye eares of ye Lord.

And the Lord saide to Samuel, Hearken vnto their voyce, and make them a King. And Samuel said vnto the men of Israel, Goe euery man vnto his citie.
