- "And the LORDª saidª° unto¹ Samuel,ª Hearkenª° unto the voiceª of the peopleª in all¹ that¹ they sayª° unto¹ thee: for¹ they have not¹ rejectedª° thee, but¹ they have rejectedª° me, that I should not reignª°¹ over¹ them." {1Sm 8:7} + "And ye¹ have this dayª rejectedª°¹ your God,ª who¹ himself¹ savedª° you out of all¹¹ your adversitiesª and your tribulations;ª and ye have saidª° unto him, [Nay], but¹ setª° a kingª over¹ us. Now¹ therefore present²° yourselves¹ beforeª the LORDª by your tribes,ª and by your thousands.ª" {1Sm 10:19} + "And I will establishª°¹ my covenantª between¹ me and thee and thy seedª after¹ thee² in their generationsª for an everlastingª covenant,ª to be¹ a Godª unto thee, and to thy seedª after¹ thee.²" {Gen 17:7} + "Now¹ therefore, if¹ ye will obey²° my voice² indeed,ª°¹ and keepª°¹ my covenant,ª then ye shall be¹ a peculiar treasureª unto me above all¹¹ people:ª for¹ all¹ the earthª [is] mine: ... And ye¹ shall be¹ unto me a kingdomª of priests,ª and an holyª nation.ª These¹ [are] the wordsª which¹ thou shalt speakª° unto¹ the childrenª of Israel.ª" {Exd 19:5-6} + "He hath not¹ beheldª° iniquityª in Jacob,ª neither¹ hath he seenª° perversenessª in Israel:ª the LORDª his Godª [is] with¹ him, and the shoutª of a kingª [is] among them." {Num 23:21} + "And Gideonª saidª° unto¹ them, I¹ will not¹ ruleª° over you, neither¹ shall my sonª ruleª° over you: the LORDª shall ruleª° over you." {Jdg 8:23} + "For Godª [is] my Kingª of old,ª¹ workingª° salvationª in the midstª of the earth.ª" {Psa 74:12} + "For¹ the LORDª [is] our judge,ª° the LORDª [is] our lawgiver,ª° the LORDª [is] our king;ª he¹ will saveª° us." {Isa 33:22} + "I will² be¹ thy king:ª whereª [is any other] that may saveª° thee in all¹ thy cities?ª and thy judgesª° of whom¹ thou saidst,ª° Giveª° me a kingª and princes?ª" {Hsa 13:10}
