Proverbs 25:5-7
Complete Jewish Bible
5 Remove the wicked from the king’s presence,
and his throne will rest firmly on righteousness.
6 Don’t put yourself forward in the king’s presence;
don’t take a place among the great.
7 For it is better to be told, “Come up here,”
than be degraded in the presence of a nobleman.
What your eyes have seen,
Proverbs 25:5-7
New International Version
5 remove wicked officials from the king’s presence,(A)
and his throne will be established(B) through righteousness.(C)
6 Do not exalt yourself in the king’s presence,
and do not claim a place among his great men;
7 it is better for him to say to you, “Come up here,”(D)
than for him to humiliate you before his nobles.
