1 Samuel 8:14-18

New American Standard Bible

^14 (A)He will take the best of your fields, your vineyards, and your olive groves, and give them to his servants. ¹⁵ And he will take a tenth of your seed and your vineyards and give it to his high officials and his servants. ¹⁶ He will also take your male servants and your female servants, and your best young men, and your donkeys, and ^[a]use them for his work. ¹⁷ He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants. ¹⁸ Then ^(B)you will cry out on that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but ^(C)the Lord will not answer you on that day.”
