1 Samuel 8:5

5 They said to him, "Look, you are old, and your sons do not follow your example. Therefore, appoint a king to judge us the same as all the other nations have."

1 Samuel 8:19-20

19 The people refused to listen to Samuel. "No!" they said. "We must have a king over us.

20 Then we'll be like all the other nations: our king will judge us, go out before us, and fight our battles."
