⁴ Then all the elders of Israel gathered them together, and came to Samuel vnto Rama, ⁵ And sayd vnto him: Beholde, thou art olde, and thy sonnes walke not in thy wayes: Now therfore make vs a king to iudge vs, as all other nations [haue] ⁶ But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, geue vs a king to iudge vs: And Samuel prayed vnto the lorde. ⁷ And the Lorde saide vnto Samuel, Heare the voyce of the people in all that they say vnto thee: For they haue not cast thee away, but they haue cast me away, that I should not raigne ouer them. ⁸ And as they haue euer done sence I brought them out of Egypt vnto this day, and haue forsaken me, and serued other gods, euen so do they vnto thee. ⁹ Now therefore hearken vnto their voyce: howbeit yet testifie vnto them, & shewe them the maner of the king that shall raigne ouer them. ¹⁰ And Samuel tolde all the wordes of the Lorde vnto the people that asked a king of him, ¹¹ And he said: This shal be the maner of the king that shall raigne ouer you, he will take your sonnes and put them to his charets, and make his horsemen of them, to run before his charet. ¹² And will make him of the captaines ouer thousandes and ouer fifties, and will set them to eare his grounde, and to gather in his haruest, & to make instrumentes of warre, and thinges that serue for his charets. ¹³ And he will take your daughters, and make them appoticaries, cookes, and bakers.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Nevertheless, the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel,.... The advice he gave not to think of a king, but be content with the government under which they were; but to this they would not hearken, notwithstanding all the inconveniences that would attend such a change:

and they said, nay, but we will have a king over us; they would not believe what Samuel said concerning a king, even though they were the words of the Lord he delivered to them; and though they knew Samuel was a prophet, and spoke by a spirit of prophecy, and none of his words had ever fallen to the ground: but such was their stubbornness and obstinacy, and so set upon having a king, that one they would have, let them suffer what hardships, or be at what expenses they might; at all events, and against all remonstrances, they were determined to have one.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 8:19. The people refused to obey — They would have the king, his manner and all, notwithstanding the solemn warning which they here receive.
