Deuteronomy 17:16-20
16ButH7535 the king must notH3808 acquire manyH7235 horsesH5483 for himself or send the peopleH5971 backH7725 to EgyptH4714 toH4616 acquire moreH7235 horsesH5483, for the LORDH3068 has saidH559, ‘You areH3254 neverH3808 to go backH7725 thatH2088 wayH1870 againH5750.’ 17He must notH3808 take manyH7235 wivesH802 for himself, lestH3808 his heartH3824 go astrayH5493. He must notH3808 accumulateH7235 for himself large amountsH3966 of silverH3701 and goldH2091.
When he is seatedH3427 onH5921 his royalH4467 throneH3678, he must writeH3789 for himself a copyH4932 of thisH2063 instructionH8451 onH5921 a scrollH5612 in the presenceH6440 of the LeviticalH3881 priestsH3548. 19It is to remainH1961 with himH5973, and he is to readH7121 from it allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416, so thatH4616 he may learnH3925 to fearH3372 the LORDH3068 his GodH430 by carefully observingH8104 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 instructionH8451 and theseH428 statutesH2706. 20Then his heartH3824 will notH1115 be exaltedH7311 aboveH4480 his countrymenH251, and he will notH1115 turn asideH5493 from the commandmentH4687, to the rightH3225 or to the leftH8040, in order thatH4616 heH1931 and his sonsH1121 may reignH748 many yearsH3117 overH5921 his kingdomH4467 inH7130 IsraelH3478.
