Ecclesiastes 8:2-5

KJ2000(i) 2 I counsel you to keep the king's commandment, and that for the sake of your oath to God. 3 Be not hasty to go out of his presence: stand not for an evil thing; for he does whatsoever pleases him. 4 Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What are you doing? 5 Whosoever keeps the commandment shall experience no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerns both time and judgment.
