Ecclesiaste 8:2-4
Nuova Riveduta 2006
2 Io ti dico: «Osserva gli ordini del re», e questo a causa del giuramento che hai fatto davanti a Dio. 3 Non ti affrettare ad allontanarti dalla sua presenza e non persistere in una cosa cattiva, perché egli può fare tutto quello che gli piace. 4 Infatti la parola del re è potente; e chi gli può dire: «Che fai?»

Ecclesiastes 8:2-4
New International Version
Obey the King
2 Obey the king’s command, I say, because you took an oath before God. 3 Do not be in a hurry to leave the king’s presence.(A) Do not stand up for a bad cause, for he will do whatever he pleases. 4 Since a king’s word is supreme, who can say to him, “What are you doing?(B)”
Ecclesiastes 8:2-4
New King James Version
Obey Authorities for God’s Sake
2 I say, “Keep the king’s commandment (A)for the sake of your oath to God. 3 (B)Do not be hasty to go from his presence. Do not take your stand for an evil thing, for he does whatever pleases him.”
4 Where the word of a king is, there is power;
And (C)who may say to him, “What are you doing?”
