耶和華對撒母耳說:“眾民對你所說的一切,你只管聽從,因為他們不是厭棄你,而是厭棄我,不要我作他們的王。 自從我把他們從埃及領上來的那天起,直到現在,他們怎樣離開我,事奉別的神,他們對我所行的一切,也照樣對你行。 現在你只管聽從他們的話,但必須鄭重警告他們,告訴他們那要統治他們的王要怎樣治理他們。”

Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know(E) what the king who will reign over them will claim as his rights.”

Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
