Proverbs 24:21-24

English Standard Version

²¹ My son, ^(A)fear the Lord and the king,
    and do not join with those who do otherwise,
²² for disaster will arise suddenly from them,
    and who knows the ruin that will come from them both?

^(C)Partiality in judging is not good.
²⁴ Whoever ^(D)says to the wicked, “You are in the right,”
    ^(E)will be cursed by peoples, abhorred by nations,
