Proverbs 24:22

Brenton(i) 22 For they will suddenly punish the ungodly, and who can know the vengeance inflicted by both? (24:22A) {\I A son that keeps the commandment shall escape destruction; for {\I such an one has fully received it. (24:22B) Let no falsehood be spoken by the king from the tongue; yea, let no falsehood proceed from his tongue. (24:22C) The king's tongue is a sword, and not one of flesh; and whosoever shall be given up to it shall be destroyed: (24:22D) for if his wrath should be provoked, he destroys men with cords, (24:22E) and devours men's bones, and burns them up as a flame, so that they are not even fit to be eaten by the young eagles. (24:22F) My son, reverence my words, and receive them, and repent.}}
