Proverbs 25:6 YLT

⁴  Take away dross from silver, And a vessel for the refiner goeth forth,

⁵  Take away the wicked before a king, And established in righteousness is his throne.

⁶  Honour not thyself before a king, And in the place of the great stand not.

⁷  For better 'that' he hath said to thee, 'Come thou up hither,' Than 'that' he humble thee before a noble, Whom thine eyes have seen.

⁸  Go not forth to strive, haste, turn, What dost thou in its latter end, When thy neighbour causeth thee to blush?
