1. Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? A man’s wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.
2. I counsel thee, Keep the king’s command, and that in regard of the oath of God.
3. Be not hasty to go out of his presence; persist not in an evil thing: for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.
4. For the king’s word hath power; and who may say unto him, What doest thou?
