Thematic Bible



Do not curse the king even in your thoughts,
and do not curse a rich person even in your bedroom,
for a bird of the sky may carry the message,
and a winged creature may report the matter.

A king's fury is a messenger of death, but a wise man appeases it. When a king's face lights up, there is life; his favor is like a cloud with spring rain.
