Ecclesiastes 8:2-5

LEB(i) 2 Keep the command of the king* because of your oath to God.* 3 Do not be terrified of his presence! Go at once and do not delay when a matter is unpleasant, for he can do anything that he desires. 4 Since the word of the king is supreme, no one can say to him, "What are you doing?" 5 Whoever obeys his command will not suffer disaster. The wise mind knows the proper time and the right procedure.
