Proverbs 25:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 25:4

2 ^aIt is the glory of God to conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

3 As the heavens for height and the earth for depth,
So the heart of kings is unsearchable.

4 ^aTake away the dross from silver,
And it will go to the silversmith for jewelry.

5 Take away the wicked from before the king,
And his throne will be established in ^arighteousness.

6 Do not exalt yourself in the presence of the king,
And do not stand in the place of the great;

7 ^aFor it is better that he say to you,
“Come up here,”
Than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince,
Whom your eyes have seen.
