And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.

Verse 19 is found in chapter 10 of 1 Samuel. Samuel gathers the people at Mizpah to formally establish the monarchy. Through the selection process Saul is identified, but he hides among the baggage, displaying an initial attitude of reserve or insecurity. When presented, he physically stands above the people. Some welcome him enthusiastically, while others despise him. The chapter ends by noting that Saul remains silent before his critics, leaving open the question of how he will respond once he possesses effective authority.

Und ihr habt euren Gott verworfen, der euch aus all eurem Unglück und Trübsal geholfen hat, und sprecht zu ihm: Setze einen König über uns.Wohlan! so tretet nun vor den HERRN nach euren Stämmen und Freundschaften.
Mas vosotros habéis desechado hoy a vuestro Dios, que os guarda de todas vuestras aflicciones y angustias, y dijisteis: No, sino pon rey sobre nosotros. Ahora pues, poneos delante de Jehová por vuestras tribus y por vuestros millares.
Pero hoy ustedes han rechazado a su Dios, que los salva de todas sus desgracias y angustias, y le han dicho: “Pon un rey sobre nosotros”. Ahora preséntense delante de Jehová por sus tribus y sus clanes».
Et aujourd'hui, vous rejetez votre Dieu, qui vous a délivrés de tous vos maux et de toutes vos souffrances, et vous lui dites: Etablis un roi sur nous! Présentez-vous maintenant devant l'Eternel, selon vos tribus et selon vos milliers.
Ma oggi voi avete sdegnato l’Iddio vostro, il qual vi ha salvati di tutti i vostri mali e distrette; e gli avete detto: Che che sia, costituisci un re sopra noi. Ora, dunque, comparite nel cospetto del Signore, per le vostre tribù e migliaia.
Mas vós tendes rejeitado hoje a vosso Deus, que vos livrou de todos os vossos males e trabalhos, e lhe tendes falado: Põe um rei sobre nós. Agora, pois, ponde-vos perante o SENHOR, pelas vossas tribos e segundo os vossos milhares.
你們今日卻厭棄救你們脫離一切災禍和患難的上帝,對他說:『求你立一個王治理我們。』現在你們應當按支派和宗族站在耶和華面前。」
