Deuteronomy 17:15
←Back to VersesThou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.
You must make the person you accept as your ruler the one chosen by God from your family members; you cannot choose someone who is not part of your family to be your leader.
