King James Version (KJV)
For now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the LORD; what then should a king do to us?
Modern English
Surely now they will say, “We have no king; for we don’t fear Yahweh; and the king, what can he do for us?”
Hebrew
כִּ֤י עַתָּה֙ יֹֽאמְר֔וּ אֵ֥ין מֶ֖לֶךְ לָ֑נוּ כִּ֣י לֹ֤א יָרֵ֙אנוּ֙ אֶת־יְהֹוָ֔ה וְהַמֶּ֖לֶךְ מַה־יַּֽעֲשֶׂה־לָּֽנוּ׃
