Proverbs 25:5-8 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

5. Take away wickedness from the face of the king, and his throne shall be established with justice.

6. Appear not glorious before the king, and stand not in the place of great men.

7. For it is better that it should be said to thee: Come up hither; than that thou shouldst be humbled before the prince.

8. The things which thy eyes have seen, utter not hastily in a quarrel: lest afterward thou mayst not be able to make amends, when thou hast dishonoured thy friend.
