15you shall surelyH7760 setH7760 a kingH4428 overH5921 you whomH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 choosesH977, one 1from amongH7130 your 2countrymenH251 you shall setH7760 as kingH4428 overH5921 yourselves; you mayH3201 not putH5414 a foreignerH5237 overH5921 yourselves whoH834 is not your 3countrymanH251. 164MoreoverH7534, he shall not multiplyH7235 horsesH5483 for himself, norH3808 shall he 5cause the peopleH5971 to returnH7725 to EgyptH4714 to multiplyH7235 horsesH5483, since 6the LordH3068 has saidH559 to you, ‘You shall neverH3808 againH3254 returnH7725 that wayH1870.’ 177He shall not multiplyH7235 wivesH802 for himself, 8orH3808 elseH3808 his heartH3824 will turnH5493 awayH5493; norH3808 shall he greatlyH3966 increaseH7235 silverH3701 and goldH2091 for himself.
18“Now it shall comeH1961 about when he sitsH3427 on the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4467, he shall writeH3789 for himself a copyH4932 of thisH2088 lawH8451 on a scrollH5612 910in the presenceH6440 of the LeviticalH3881 priestsH3548.
