Deuteronomy 17:18-20

18When he becomes king, he should have the Levitical priests make him a copy of these teachings on a scroll.

19He must keep it with him and read it his entire life. He will learn to fear the Lord his God and faithfully obey everything found in these teachings and laws.

20Then he won’t think he’s better than the rest of his people, and he won’t disobey these commands in any way. So he and his sons will rule for a long time in Israel.
