When a king judgeth faithfully the poor, his throne, to futurity, shall be established.
Said the God of Israel, Unto me, spake the Rock of Israel: - One Ruling over Men, A Righteous One, ruling in the reverence of God,
and said unto the judges, See what, ye, are doing, inasmuch as, not for man, must ye judge, but for Yahweh, - who will be with you, in the word of justice.
Now, therefore, ye kings, show your prudence, Be admonished, ye judges of earth: Serve Yahweh with reverence, and exult with trembling:
The abomination of kings, is to work lawlessness, for, by righteousness, is established a throne.
Lovingkindness and faithfulness, will guard a king, - therefore should he support, with lovingkindness, his throne.
