13. And he will take your daughters for perfumers, and cooks, and bakers.

14. And your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, the best, will he take and give to his servants.

15. And he will take the tenth of your seed and of your vineyards, and give to his chamberlains and to his servants.

16. And he will take your bondmen, and your bondwomen, and your comeliest young men, and your asses, and use them for his work.

17. He will take the tenth of your sheep. And ye shall be his servants.

18. And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king whom ye have chosen; and Jehovah will not answer you in that day.

19. And the people refused to hearken to the voice of Samuel; and they said, No, but there shall be a king over us,

20. that we also may be like all the nations; and our king shall judge us, and go out before us, and conduct our wars.
