Proverbs 25:1-6

1 These also are proverbs of Shlomo, which the men of Hizkiyahu king of Yehudah copied out.

2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

3 As the heavens for height, and the eretz for depth, So the hearts of kings are unsearchable.

4 Take away the dross from the silver, And material comes out for the refiner;

5 Take away the wicked from the king's presence, And his throne will be established in righteousness.

6 Don't exalt yourself in the presence of the king, Or claim a place among great men;
