Deuteronomy 17:12-14

New Century Version

¹² The person who does not show respect for the judge or priest who is there serving the Lord your God must be put to death. You must get rid of that evil from Israel. ¹³ Then everyone will hear about this and will be afraid, and they will not show disrespect anymore.

Choosing a King

¹⁴ When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, taking it as your own and living in it, you will say, “Let’s appoint a king over us like the nations all around us.”
