Deuteronomy 17:17-20

17Neither shall he multiplyH7235 wives to himself, that his heartH3824 turnH5493 not awayH5493; neither shall he greatly multiplyH7235 to himself silverH3701 and goldH2091. 18And it shall beH1961, when he sitteth upon the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4467, that he shall writeH3789 for himself a copyH4932 of this lawH8451 in a bookH5612 out of that which is before the priestsH3548, the LevitesH3881; 19and it shall beH1961 with him, and he shall readH7121 therein all the daysH3117 of his life; that he may learnH3925 to fearH3372 Jehovah his 1GodH430, to keepH8104 all the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 and these statutesH2706, to do them; 20that his heartH3824 be not liftedH7311 up above his brethren, and that he turnH5493 not asideH5493 from the commandmentH4687, to the rightH3225 handH3225, or to the left; that he may prolongH748 his daysH3117 in his kingdomH4467, he, and his sonsH1121, in the midstH7130 of IsraelH3478.
