My son, fear the Lord and the king;
And do not associate with those who are given to change [of allegiance, and are revolutionary],
²² 
For their tragedy will rise suddenly,
And who knows the punishment that both [the Lord and the king] will bring on the rebellious?

²⁴ 
He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,”
Peoples will curse him, nations will denounce him;
²⁵ 
But to those [honorable judges] who rebuke the wicked, it will go well with them and they will find delight,
And a good blessing will come upon them.
