05:017:015 Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD
thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king
over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy
brother.
05:017:016 But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the
people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses:
forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no
more that way.
05:017:017 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart
turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and
gold.
05:017:018 And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his
kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of
that which is before the priests the Levites:
05:017:019 And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the
days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep
all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:
05:017:020 That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that
he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the
left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and
his children, in the midst of Israel.
05:018:001 The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall
have no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings
of the LORD made by fire, and his inheritance.
05:018:002 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their
brethren: the LORD is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
05:018:003 And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them
that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they shall give
unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
05:018:004 The firstfruit also of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine
oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou give him.
05:018:005 For the LORD thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes,
to stand to minister in the name of the LORD, him and his sons for ever.
05:018:006 And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel,
where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the
place which the LORD shall choose;
05:018:007 Then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as
all his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before the LORD.
05:018:008 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which
cometh of the sale of his patrimony.
05:018:009 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those
nations.
05:018:010 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his
son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination,
or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
05:018:011 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a
wizard, or a necromancer.
