18When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, but the LORD will not answer you in that day.” 19But the people refused to listen to Samuel. “No!” they said. “We want a king over us.

20Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles.” 21When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the LORD . 22The LORD answered, “Listen to them and give them a king.” Then Samuel said to the Israelites, “Everyone go back to your own town.”
