2 The terror of a king is like the roar of a lion;He who provokes him to anger (A)sins against his own soul.
2 A king is as terrifying as a lion’s growl. Those who anger him may lose their life.
8 (A)A king who sits on the throne of justice[a]Disperses all evil with his eyes.
8 A king who sits on his judgment throne sifts out all evil with his eyes.
26 A (A)wise king winnows the wicked,And turns the (B)threshing wheel over them.
26 A wise king sifts out the wicked, and runs them over with a wheel.
28 Lovingkindness and (A)truth will guard the king,And he upholds his throne by lovingkindness.
28 Kindness and faithfulness protect the king; he supports his throne by kindness.
