15 Thou shalt in any wise7760 set7760him king4428 over thee, whom the LORD3068 thy God430 shall choose:977one from among7130 thy brethren251 shalt thou set7760 king4428 over thee: thou mayest3201 not set5414 a stranger5237376 over thee, which is not thy brother.25116 But he shall not multiply7235 horses5483 to himself, nor cause the people5971 to return7725 to Egypt,4714 to the end that he should multiply7235 horses:5483 forasmuch as the LORD3068 hath said559 unto you, Ye shall henceforth3254 return7725 no more that way.187017 Neither shall he multiply7235 wives802 to himself, that his heart3824 turn5493 not away: neither shall he greatly3966 multiply7235 to himself silver3701 and gold.209118 And it shall be, when he sitteth3427 upon the throne3678 of his kingdom,4467 that he shall write3789 him a copy4932 of this law8451 in a book5612 out of thatwhichis before6440 the priests3548 the Levites:388119 And it shall be with him, and he shall read7121 therein all the days3117 of his life:2416 that he may learn3925 to fear3372 the LORD3068 his God,430 to keep8104 all the words1697 of this law8451 and these statutes,2706 to do6213 them:
20 That his heart3824 be not lifted up7311 above his brethren,251 and that he turn not aside5493 from the commandment,4687to the right hand,3225 or to the left:8040 to the end that he may prolong748his days3117 in his kingdom,4467 he, and his children,1121 in the midst7130 of Israel.3478
