'King' in the Bible

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel:

The terror of a king is like the growling of a lion;He who provokes him to anger forfeits his own life.

A king who sits on the throne of justiceDisperses all evil with his eyes.

A wise king winnows the wicked,And drives the threshing wheel over them.

Loyalty and truth preserve the king,And he upholds his throne by righteousness.

He who loves purity of heartAnd whose speech is gracious, the king is his friend.

My son, fear the Lord and the king;Do not associate with those who are given to change,

These also are proverbs of Solomon which the men of Hezekiah, king of Judah, transcribed.

Take away the wicked before the king,And his throne will be established in righteousness.

Do not claim honor in the presence of the king,And do not stand in the place of great men;

The king gives stability to the land by justice,But a man who takes bribes overthrows it.

If a king judges the poor with truth,His throne will be established forever.

Under a slave when he becomes king,And a fool when he is satisfied with food,
