Deuteronomy 17:16-20
16But he shall not multiplyH7235 horsesH5483 to himself, nor cause the peopleH5971 to returnH7725 to EgyptH4714, to the end that he should multiplyH7235 horsesH5483: forasmuch as YhwhH3068 hath saidH559 unto you, Ye shall henceforthH3254 returnH7725 no more that wayH1870.
17Neither shall he multiplyH7235 wivesH802 to himself, that his heartH3824 turnH5493 not away: neither shall he greatlyH3966 multiplyH7235 to himself silverH3701 and goldH2091.
18And it shall be, when he sittethH3427 upon the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4467, that he shall writeH3789 him a copyH4932 of this lawH8451 in a bookH5612 out of that which is beforeH6440 the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881:
19And it shall be with him, and he shall readH7121 therein all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416: that he may learnH3925 to fearH3372 YhwhH3068 his GodH430, to keepH8104 all the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 and these statutesH2706, to doH6213 them:
20That his heartH3824 be not lifted upH7311 above his brethrenH251, and that he turn not asideH5493 from the commandmentH4687, to the right handH3225, or to the leftH8040: to the end that he may prolongH748 his daysH3117 in his kingdomH4467, he, and his childrenH1121, in the midstH7130 of IsraelH3478.
