I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God.

Obey the king’s command, I say, because you took an oath before God.

Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.

Do not be in a hurry to leave the king’s presence. Do not stand up for a bad cause, for he will do whatever he pleases.

Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?

Since a king’s word is supreme, who can say to him, “What are you doing?”
