UDuteronomi 17:14-20

Uma ungena ezweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akunika lona, ulidle, uhlale kulo, uthi: ‘Ngiyakumisa inkosi phezu kwami njengezizwe zonke ezingihaqileyo; Kumelwe ummise abe yinkosi phezu kwakho kukho konke uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ayakumkhetha; omunye wabafowenu kumelwe umise inkosi phezu kwakho; awuyikumisa phezu kwakho umfokazi ongesiye umfowenu. Kodwa akumelwe azandisele amahhashi futhi angavumeli abantu babuyele eGibhithe ukuze andise amahhashi; Futhi makangazandiseli abafazi, funa inhliziyo yakhe iphambuke; futhi ngeke azandisele kakhulu isiliva negolide. Kuyakuthi lapho ehlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso wakhe, uyakuzilobela ikhophi yalo mthetho encwadini ephuma kuleyo ephambi kwabapristi bamaLevi. Kumelwe ibe kuye, futhi kumelwe ayifunde zonke izinsuku zokuphila kwakhe, ukuze afunde ukumesaba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe nokugcina wonke amazwi alo mthetho nalezi zimiso ukuba awenze. Ukuze inhliziyo yakhe ingaziphakamisi phezu kwabafowabo, angaphambuki emyalweni wakhe, ngakwesokunene noma ngakwesokhohlo, ukuze andise izinsuku zakhe embusweni wakhe, yena nabantwana bakhe phakathi kuka-Israyeli.
