Contextual Overview
4 Then all the leaders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah. 5 They said to him, "See, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Choose a king to rule over us like all the nations." 6 But Samuel was not pleased when they said, "Give us a king to rule over us." And Samuel prayed to the Lord. 7 The Lord said to Samuel, "Listen to the voice of the people in all they say to you. For they have not turned away from you. They have turned away from Me, that I should not be king over them. 8 They are doing to you what they have done since the day I brought them out of Egypt until now. They have turned away from Me and worshiped other gods. 9 So listen to their voice. But tell them of the danger and show them the ways of the king who will rule over them." 10 So Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who had asked him for a king. 11 He said, "This will be the way the king will rule over you. He will take your sons and make them drive his war-wagons, be his horsemen, and run in front of his war-wagons. 12 He will choose leaders of thousands and of fifties. He will choose men to plow his ground, gather his grain, and make objects for war and for his war-wagons. 13 He will take your daughters to make perfume, work with the food, and make bread.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Samuel heard all the words of the people,.... Patiently, and without interruption; attentively heard them, took notice of them, laid them up in his memory; but gave no answer to them, but reported them to the Lord, as in the next clause:
and he rehearsed them in the ears of the Lord; privately, in a free and familiar manner, with great exactness, as they were expressed; this he did, not before the people publicly, but in secret prayer, seeking for direction what he should further do, or what answer he should return to them.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 8:21. Rehearsed them in the ears of the Lord. — He went to the altar, and in his secret devotion laid the whole business before God.
