The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Et ait Samuel ad omnem populum : Certe videtis quem elegit Dominus, quoniam non sit similis illi in omni populo. Et clamavit omnis populus, et ait : Vivat rex.
Septuagint (Swete): καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουὴλ πρὸς πάντα τὸν λαόν Εἰ ἑοράκατε ὃν ἐκλέλεκται ἑαυτῷ Κύριος, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῷ ὅμοιος ἐν πᾶσιν ὑμῖν; καὶ ἔγνωσαν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς καὶ εἶπαν Ζήτω ὁ βασιλεύς.
Hebrew (WLC): וַיֹּ֨אמֶר שְׁמוּאֵ֜ל אֶל כָּל הָעָ֗ם הַרְּאִיתֶם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּֽחַר בּ֣וֹ יְהוָ֔ה כִּ֛י אֵ֥ין כָּמֹ֖הוּ בְּכָל הָעָ֑ם וַיָּרִ֧עוּ כָל הָעָ֛ם וַיֹּאמְר֖וּ יְחִ֥י הַמֶּֽלֶךְ

Haydock's commentary

King. Our favourite song, "God save," &c., is an amplification of this sentiment. (Haydock)
