Proverbs 20:2

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.

The king's wrath, messengers of death: and a wise man shall expiate it

The king's wrath growling as the young lion, and his acceptance as dew upon the grass.

If the spirit of him ruling shall go up against thee, thou shalt not leave thy place; for quietness will put down great sins.

They shall go after Jehovah: as a lion shall he roar: for he shall roar, and the sons of the waters shall tremble.

The lion roared, who shall not be afraid? the Lord Jehovah spake, who shall not prophesy?

And he sinning against me did violence to his soul: all hating me loved death.

And king Solomon will swear by Jehovah, saying, Thus will God do to me, and thus will he add, for Adonijah spoke this word against his soul.

For this cause the king was in dignant and greatly angry, and he spake to destroy to all the wise of Babel.
