1 Samuel 8:8,9

So do they also unto thee Thou farest no worse than myself. This he speaks for Samuel's comfort and vindication. Yet protest solemnly unto them That, if it be possible, thou mayest yet prevent their sin and misery. Show them the manner of the king That is, of the kings which they desire, like those of other nations. Show them at large into what a state of servitude they are going to throw themselves by casting off the government of judges, set over them by myself, and subjecting themselves to the power of such kings as rule in other nations.
