1 Samuel 8:10-17 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

10. And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked him for a king.

11. And he said, This will be the right of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen, and some shall run before his chariot.

12. And he will appoint captains over thousands and captains over fifties and will set them to plough his ground and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and the munitions of his chariots.

13. And he will take your daughters to be confectioneries and to be cooks and to be bakers.

14. And he will take your fields and your vineyards and your good oliveyards and give them to his slaves.

15. And he will take the tenth of your seed and of your vineyards to give to his officers and to his slaves.

16. And he will take your menslaves and your maidslaves and your good young men and your asses and do his work with them.

17. He will also take the tenth of your sheep, and finally ye shall be his slaves.
