1 Samuel


  • |1 Samuel 8:1| When Samuel was old, he made his sons judges over Israel.

  • |1 Samuel 8:2| Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abijah. They were judges in Beersheba.

  • |1 Samuel 8:3| His sons didn’t walk in his ways, but turned aside after dishonest gain, took bribes, and perverted justice.

  • |1 Samuel 8:4| Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together and came to Samuel to Ramah.

  • |1 Samuel 8:5| They said to him, “Behold, you are old, and your sons don’t walk in your ways. Now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.”

  • |1 Samuel 8:6| But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” Samuel prayed to Yahweh.

  • |1 Samuel 8:7| Yahweh said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in all that they tell you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me as the king over them.

  • |1 Samuel 8:8| According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even to this day, in that they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so they also do to you.

  • |1 Samuel 8:9| Now therefore listen to their voice. However you shall protest solemnly to them, and shall show them the way of the king who will reign over them.”

  • |1 Samuel 8:10| Samuel told all Yahweh’s words to the people who asked him for a king.
