⁶ But the thing ^(A)displeased Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” So Samuel ^(B)prayed to the Lord. ⁷ And the Lord said to Samuel, “Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for ^(C)they have not rejected you, but ^(D)they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them.
