New Living Translation

Deuteronomy 17:13-15 New Living Translation (NLT)

13. Then everyone else will hear about it and be afraid to act so arrogantly.

14. “You are about to enter the land the lord your God is giving you. When you take it over and settle there, you may think, ‘We should select a king to rule over us like the other nations around us.’

15. If this happens, be sure to select as king the man the lord your God chooses. You must appoint a fellow Israelite; he may not be a foreigner.
