Proverbs 24:21-22
Authorized (King James) Version
21 My son, fear thou the Lord and the king:
and meddle not with them that are given to change:
22 for their calamity shall rise suddenly;
and who knoweth the ruin of them both?
Proverbs 25:2-3
Authorized (King James) Version
2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing:
but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
3 The heaven for height, and the earth for depth,
and the heart of kings is unsearchable.
Proverbs 25:4-5
Authorized (King James) Version
4 Take away the dross from the silver,
and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.
5 Take away the wicked from before the king,
and his throne shall be established in righteousness.
Proverbs 25:6-7
Authorized (King James) Version
6 Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king,
and stand not in the place of great men:
7 for better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither;
than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.
Proverbs 29:4
Authorized (King James) Version
4 The king by judgment establisheth the land:
but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
Proverbs 29:14
Authorized (King James) Version
14 The king that faithfully judgeth the poor,
his throne shall be established for ever.
Proverbs 31:4-7
Authorized (King James) Version
4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine;
nor for princes strong drink:
5 lest they drink, and forget the law,
and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
6 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish,
and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty,
and remember his misery no more.
