Proverbs 20:2; Proverbs 20:4; Proverbs 20:8; Proverbs 20:12; Proverbs 20:14; Proverbs 20:16; Proverbs 20:26

The terror of a king is like bthe growling of a lion;

whoever provokes him to anger cforfeits his life.


eThe sluggard does not plow in the autumn;

fhe will seek at harvest and have nothing.


lA king who sits on the throne of judgment

mwinnows all evil with his eyes.


12  qThe hearing ear and the seeing eye,

rthe Lord has made them both.


14  Bad, bad, says the buyer,

but when he goes away, then he boasts.


16  xTake a man’s garment when he has put up security for a stranger,

and yhold it in pledge when he puts up security for foreigners.1


26  A wise king pwinnows the wicked

and drives qthe wheel over them.
