1 Sam 8:5-9
Appoint a king to rule us, just like everybody else."
6 When Samuel heard their demand — "Give us a king to rule us!" — he was crushed. How awful! Samuel prayed to GOD.
7 GOD answered Samuel, "Go ahead and do what they're asking. They are not rejecting you. They've rejected me as their King. 8 From the day I brought them out of Egypt until this very day they've been behaving like this, leaving me for other gods. And now they're doing it to you. 9 So let them have their own way. But warn them of what they're in for. Tell them the way kings operate, just what they're likely to get from a king."
