Proverbs 25:5 WBT

³  The heaven for hight, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings [is] unsearchable.

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.

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 to thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldst be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thy eyes have seen.
