Proverbs 25:5 Context
3The heauen for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of Kings is vnsearchable. 4Take away the drosse from the siluer, and there shall come foorth a vessell for the finer. 5Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shalbe established in righteousnes. 6Put not forth thy selfe in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men. 7For better it is that it be said vnto thee, Come vp hither; then that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the Prince whom thine eies haue seene.
