Deuteronomy 17:14-19
14When thou art comeH935 unto the landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 giveth thee, and shalt possessH3423 it, and shalt dwellH3427 therein; and shalt sayH559, I will setH7760 a kingH4428 over meH413, like as allH3605 the nationsH1471 that are roundH5439 aboutH5439 meH413;
15thou shalt in anyH376 wise setH7760 him kingH4428 over thee, whomH834 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall chooseH977: one from among thy brethrenH251 shalt thou setH7760 kingH4428 over thee: thou mayest notH3808 putH5414 a foreignerH5237 over thee, whichH834 is notH3808 thy brotherH251.
16OnlyH7535 he shall notH3808 multiplyH7235 horsesH5483 to himselfH3808, norH3808 causeH7725 the peopleH5971 to returnH7725 to EgyptH4714, to the end that he should multiplyH7235 horsesH5483: forasmuch as the LORDH3068 hath saidH559 unto youH7725, Ye shall henceforth returnH7725 noH3808 moreH5750 that wayH1870.
17NeitherH3808 shall he multiplyH7235 wivesH802 to himselfH3824, that his heartH3824 turnH5493 notH3808 awayH5493: neitherH3808 shall he greatlyH3966 multiplyH7235 to himselfH3824 silverH3701 and goldH2091.
18And it shall be, when he sitteth uponH5921 the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4467, that he shall writeH3789 him a copyH4932 of this lawH8451 in a bookH5612, outH6440 of that which is beforeH6440 the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881:
19and it shall be with him, and he shall readH7121 therein allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH3117: that he may learnH3925 to fearH3372 the LORDH3068 his GodH430, to keepH8104 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 and theseH428 statutesH2706, to doH6213 them:
