Deuteronomy 17:13-15
New International Reader's Version
13 All the Israelites will hear about it. And they will be afraid to disrespect a judge or priest again.
Appoint the King the Lord Chooses
14 You will enter the land the Lord your God is giving you. You will take it as your own. You will make your homes in it. When you do, you will say, “Let’s appoint a king over us, just like all the nations around us.” 15 When that happens, make sure you appoint over yourselves a king the Lord your God chooses. He must be from among your own people. Don’t appoint over yourselves someone from another country. Don’t choose anyone who isn’t from one of the tribes of Israel.
