and,you_all become to=him/it as,servants
Samuel is speaking as if the Israelites would literally become slaves to the king. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and in the end, it will be as if you are his slaves]
8:17 you will be his slaves: By demanding a king, the people whose ancestors had once been slaves in Egypt were risking a new enslavement (cp. 1 Kgs 12:1-20).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
