1 Samuel 8:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ And the LORD said to Samuel, “Hear the voice of the people in all that they shall say to you. For they have not cast you away, but have cast Me away, so that I would not reign over them.

⁸ “As they have always done, since I brought them out of Egypt up until this day (forsaking Me and serving other gods), even so they do to you.

⁹ “Now, therefore, listen to their voice. However, still testify to them and show them the behavior of the king who shall reign over them.”
