Deuteronomy 17:14-15

14“When you enter the land which the Lord your God is giving you, and you 1take possession of it and live in it, and you say, ‘2I will appoint a king over me like all the nations who are around me,’

15you shall in fact appoint a king over you whom the Lord your God chooses. One 3from among your countrymen you shall appoint as king over yourselves; you may not put a foreigner over yourselves, anyone who is not your countryman.
