Proverbs 30:31

Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895

The greyhound; the he-goat also; And the king, against whom there is no rising up.

See the chapter Copy

The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: But a wise man will pacify it.

The terror of a king is as the roaring of a lion: He that provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own life.

The lion, which is mightiest among beasts, And turneth not away for any;

If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, Or if thou hast thought evil, Lay thine hand upon thy mouth.
