CHAP. VIII.
1 Samuel maketh his sonnes Iudges ouer Israel, who follow not
his steppes. 5 The Israelites aske a King. 11 Samuel declareth
in what state they should be vnder the King. 19 Notwithstanding
they aske one still, and the Lord willeth Samuel
to graunt vnto them.
1 When Samuel was nowe become olde, he
note made his sonnes Iudges ouer Israel.
2 (And the name of his eldest sonne was
note Ioel, and the name of the second Abiah) euen
Iudges in Beer-sheba.
3 And his sonnes walked not in his wayes,
but turned aside after lucre, and note tooke rewards,
and peruerted the iudgement.
4 ¶2; Wherefore all the Elders of Israel gathered
them together, and came to Samuel vnto
note Ramah,
5 And said vnto him, Beholde, thou art olde,
-- --
The people require a King.
and thy sonnes walke not in thy wayes: note make
vs nowe a King to iudge vs like all nations.
6 But the thing note displeased Samuel, when
they said, Giue vs a King to iudge vs: and Samuel
prayed vnto the Lord.
7 And the Lord said vnto Samuel, Heare the
voyce of the people in all that they shall say vnto
thee: for they haue not cast thee away, but they
haue cast me away, þt; I should not reigne ouer th&ebar;.
8 As they haue euer done since I brought
them out of Egypt euen vnto this day, (and haue
forsaken me, and serued other gods) euen so doe
they vnto thee.
9 Nowe therefore hearken vnto their voyce:
howbeit yet note testifie vnto them, and shewe them
the maner of þe; King that shall reigne ouer them.
10 ¶2; So Samuel told all the wordes of the Lord
vnto the people that asked a King of him.
11 And he saide, This shall be the note maner of
the King that shall reigne ouer you: he will take
your sonnes, and appoint them to his charets, and
to be his horsemen, and some shall runne before
his charet.
12 Also he will make them his captaines ouer
thousands, and captaines ouer fifties, and to eare
his ground, and to reape his haruest, and to make
instruments of warre, and the thinges that serue
for his charets.
13 He will also take your daughters and make
them apoticaries, and cookes, and bakers.
14 And he will take your fieldes, & your vineyardes,
and your best Oliue trees, and giue them
to his seruants.
15 And he will take the tenth of your seede,
and of your vineyards, & giue it to his note Eunuches,
and to his seruants.
16 And he will take your men seruants, and
your maide seruants, and the chiefe of your yong
men, and your asses, and put them to his worke.
17 He will take the tenth of your sheepe, and
ye shall be his seruants.
18 And ye shall crie out at that day, because
of your King, whom ye haue chosen you, and the
Lord will not note heare you at that day.
19 But the people would not heare the voyce
of Samuel, but did say, Nay, but there shall be a
King ouer vs.
20 And we also will be like all other nations,
and our King shall iudge vs, and goe out before
vs, and fight our battels.
21 Therefore when Samuel heard all þe; wordes
of þe; people, he rehearsed th&ebar; in þe; eares of þe; Lord.
22 And the Lord saide to Samuel, note Hearken
vnto their voyce, and make them a King. And Samuel
said vnto the men of Israel, Goe euery man
vnto his citie.
