1 Samuel 8:6
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
But the thing displeased Samuel (note: Heb. was evil in the eyes of Samuel), when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the Lord.
But when they said, “Give us a king to judge us,” their demand was displeasing in the sight of Samuel; so he prayed to the LORD.
