Deuteronomy 17:18 in Context — Deuteronomy 17

16 Porém que não se aumente cavalos, nem faça voltar o povo ao Egito para acrescentar cavalos: porque o SENHOR vos disse: Não procurareis voltar mais por este caminho.

17 Nem aumentará para si mulheres, para que seu coração não se desvie: nem prata nem ouro acrescentará para si em grande quantidade.

18 E será, quando se assentar sobre o trono de seu reino, que há de escrever para si em um livro uma cópia desta lei, do original de diante dos sacerdotes levitas;

19 E o terá consigo, e lerá nele todos os dias de sua vida, para que aprenda a temer ao SENHOR seu Deus, para guardar todas as palavras desta lei e estes estatutos, para praticá-los:

20 Para que não se eleve seu coração sobre seus irmãos, nem se desvie do mandamento à direita nem à esquerda; a fim que prolongue seus dias em seu reino, ele e seus filhos, em meio de Israel.
