1 These also are Solomon’s proverbs that were copiedby the men of King Hezekiah of Judah.
2 It is the glory of God to hide thingsbut the glory of kings to investigate them.
3 ⌊Like⌋ the high heavens and the deep earth,so the mind of kings is unsearchable.
4 Take the impurities out of silver,and a vessel is ready for the silversmith to mold.
5 Take a wicked person away from the presence of a king,and justice will make his throne secure.
