1 Samuel 8:2 · שמואל א ח:ב

וַיְהִי שֶׁם־בְּנוֹ הַבְּכוֹר יוֹאֵל וְשֵׁם מִשְׁנֵהוּ אֲבִיָּה שֹׁפְטִים בִּבְאֵר שָֽׁבַע

Now the name of his first-born was Joel; and the name of his second, Abijah; they were judges in Beer-sheba.

1 Samuel 8:3 · שמואל א ח:ג

וְלֹֽא־הָלְכוּ בָנָיו בדרכו וַיִּטּוּ אַחֲרֵי הַבָּצַע וַיִּקְחוּ־שֹׁחַד וַיַּטּוּ מִשְׁפָּֽט

And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted justice.

1 Samuel 8:4 · שמואל א ח:ד

וַיִּֽתְקַבְּצוּ כֹּל זִקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל־שְׁמוּאֵל הָרָמָֽתָה

Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah.

1 Samuel 8:5 · שמואל א ח:ה

וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו הִנֵּה אַתָּה זָקַנְתָּ וּבָנֶיךָ לֹא הָלְכוּ בִּדְרָכֶיךָ עַתָּה שִֽׂימָה־לָּנוּ מֶלֶךְ לְשָׁפְטֵנוּ כְּכָל־הַגּוֹיִֽם

And they said unto him: ‘Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways; now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.’

1 Samuel 8:6 · שמואל א ח:ו

וַיֵּרַע הַדָּבָר בְּעֵינֵי שְׁמוּאֵל כַּאֲשֶׁר אָמְרוּ תְּנָה־לָּנוּ מֶלֶךְ לְשָׁפְטֵנוּ וַיִּתְפַּלֵּל שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל־יְהוָֽה

But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said: ‘Give us a king to judge us.’ And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
