Proverbs 25:5-7
American Standard Version
Proverbs 25:5-7
American Standard Version
5 Take away the wicked from before the king,
And his throne shall be established in righteousness.
6 [a]Put not thyself forward in the presence of the king,
And stand not in the place of great men:
7 For better is it 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.
