Deuteronomy 17:13-15

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹³ And all the people shall hear and fear and no longer act presumptuously.

¹⁴ ¶ When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God gives thee and shalt inherit it and shalt dwell therein and shalt say, I will set a king over me like all the Gentiles that are round about me;

¹⁵ Thou shalt surely appoint as king over thee the one whom the LORD thy God shall choose; one from among thy brethren shalt thou set as king over thee; thou may not set a stranger over thee, who is not thy brother.
