Proverbs 24:21-22 My son, fear God and the king, and do not disobey either of them.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ My son, fear God and the king, and do not disobey either of them. ²² For they will suddenly punish the ungodly, and who can know the vengeance inflicted by both? ^(24:22A) A son that keeps the commandment shall escape destruction, for such a 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, honor my words, and receive them, and repent.
