1 Samuel 8:16-22
8:16 He will take your male and female servants, as well as your best cattle and your donkeys, and assign them for his own use.
8:17 He will demand a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will be his servants.
8:18 In that day you will cry out because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the
Lord won’t answer you in that day.”

8:19 But the people refused to heed Samuel’s warning. 2 Instead they said, “No! There will be a king over us!
8:20 We will be like all the other nations. Our king will judge us and lead us 3 and fight our battles.”
8:21 So Samuel listened to everything the people said and then reported it to the Lord. 4
8:22 The Lord said to Samuel, “Do as they say 5 and install a king over them.” Then Samuel said to the men of Israel, “Each of you go back to his own city.”
