1 Samuel 8:5

They said to him, “Look, you are old, and your sons don’t follow your ways. So now appoint over us a king to lead ¹  us, just like all the other nations have.”

They said to him, "You are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways; now appoint a king to lead us, such as all the other nations have."

and they said to him, "Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations."

"Look," they told him, "you are now old, and your sons are not like you. Give us a king like all the other nations have."

They presented their case: "Look, you're an old man, and your sons aren't following in your footsteps. Here's what we want you to do: Appoint a king to rule us, just like everybody else."

And said to him, See now, you are old, and your sons do not go in your ways: give us a king now to be our judge, so that we may be like the other nations.

and said to him, "You are old and your sons do not follow in your ways; appoint for us, then, a king to govern us, like other nations."

and said to him, "Look, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now make us a king to judge us like all the nations."

They said to him, “Look, you are old, and your sons don’t follow your ways. So now appoint over us a king to lead ¹  us, just like all the other nations have.”
