And he said, H559 This H2088 will be the manner H4941 of the king H4428 that shall reign H4427 over you: He will take H3947 your sons, H1121 and appoint H7760 them for himself, for his chariots, H4818 and to be his horsemen; H6571 and some shall run H7323 before H6440 his chariots. H4818

And he will take H3947 your daughters H1323 to be confectionaries, H7543 and to be cooks, H2876 and to be bakers. H644

And he will take the tenth H6237 of your seed, H2233 and of your vineyards, H3754 and give H5414 to his officers, H5631 and to his servants. H5650

He will take the tenth H6237 of your sheep: H6629 and you shall be his servants. H5650

When H3588 you are come H935 to the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 gives H5414 you, and shall possess H3423 it, and shall dwell H3427 therein, and shall say, H559 I will set H7760 a king H4428 over H5921 me, like as all H3605 the nations H1471 that are about H5439 me;

But he shall not multiply H7235 horses H5483 to himself, nor H3808 cause the people H5971 to return H7725 to Egypt, H4714 to the end H4616 that he should multiply H7235 horses: H5483 for as much as the LORD H3068 has said H559 to you, You shall from now on H3254 return H7725 no H3808 more H5750 that way. H1870

And it shall be, when he sits H3427 on the throne H3678 of his kingdom, H4467 that he shall write H3789 him a copy H4932 of this H2063 law H8451 in a book H5612 out of that which is before H6440 the priests H3548 the Levites: H3881

That his heart H3824 be not lifted H7311 up above his brothers, H251 and that he turn H5493 not aside from the commandment, H4687 to the right H3225 hand, H3225 or to the left: H8040 to the end H4616 that he may prolong H748 his days H3117 in his kingdom, H4467 he, and his children, H1121 in the middle H7130 of Israel. H3478

Thus H3541 said H5002 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Let it suffice H7227 you, O princes H5387 of Israel: H3478 remove H5493 violence H2555 and spoil, H7701 and execute H6213 judgment H4941 and justice, H6666 take H7311 away H7311 your exactions H1646 from my people, H5971 said H559 the Lord H136 GOD. H3069

You shall have H1961 just H6664 balances, H3976 and a just H6664 ephah, H374 and a just H6664 bath. H1324

Thus H3541 said H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 If H3588 the prince H5387 give H5414 a gift H4979 to any H376 of his sons, H1121 the inheritance H5159 thereof shall be his sons'; H1121 it shall be their possession H272 by inheritance. H5159

Moreover the prince H5387 shall not take H3947 of the people's H5971 inheritance H5159 by oppression, H3238 to thrust H3238 them out of their possession; H272 but he shall give his sons H1121 inheritance H5157 out of his own possession: H272 that my people H5971 be not scattered H6327 every man H376 from his possession. H272

Let every G3956 soul G5590 be subject G5293 to the higher G5242 powers. G1849 For there is no G3756 power G1849 but of God: G2316 the powers G1849 that be are ordained G5021 of God. G2316

For rulers G758 are not a terror G5401 to good G18 works, G2041 but to the evil. G2556 Will G2309 you then G1161 not be afraid G5399 of the power? G1849 do G4160 that which is good, G18 and you shall have G2192 praise G1868 of the same: G846

Why G1352 you must needs G318 be subject, G5293 not only G3440 for wrath, G3709 but also G2532 for conscience G4893 sake.

Render G591 therefore G3767 to all G3956 their dues: G3782 tribute G5411 to whom G3588 tribute G5411 is due; G514 custom G5056 to whom G3588 custom; G5056 fear G5401 to whom G3588 fear; G5401 honor G5092 to whom G3588 honor. G5092

For kings, G935 and for all G3956 that are in authority; G5247 that we may lead G1236 a quiet G2263 and peaceable G2272 life G979 in all G3956 godliness G2150 and honesty. G4587

Put G5279 them in mind G5279 to be subject G5293 to principalities G746 and powers, G1849 to obey G3980 magistrates, G3980 to be ready G2092 to every G3956 good G18 work, G2041

Submit G5293 yourselves to every G3956 ordinance G2937 of man G442 for the Lord's G2962 sake: whether G1535 it be to the king, G935 as supreme; G5242

Or G1535 to governors, G2232 as to them that are sent G3992 by him for the punishment G1557 of evildoers, G2555 and for the praise G1868 of them that do G17 well. G17
