## 1 Samuel 8:10-12 in Context (Verses 7–15 KJV)
 
 [7 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/7) And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/8) According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/9) 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.**
 
 [10 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/10) ¶ And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/11) And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint *them* for himself, for his chariots, and *to be* his horsemen; and *some* shall run before his chariots.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/12) And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and *will set them* to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/13) And he will take your daughters *to be* confectionaries, and *to be* cooks, and *to be* bakers.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/14) And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, *even* the best *of them*, and give *them* to his servants.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/1-samuel/8/15) And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.*
