Deuteronomy 17:17-20

New International Version

¹⁷ He must not take many wives,^(A) or his heart will be led astray.^(B) He must not accumulate^(C) large amounts of silver and gold.^(D)

¹⁸ When he takes the throne^(E) of his kingdom, he is to write^(F) for himself on a scroll a copy^(G) of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. ¹⁹ It is to be with him, and he is to read it all the days of his life^(H) so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees^{(I) 20} and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law^(J) to the right or to the left.^(K) Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel.^(L)
