Proverbs 24:21
“My son, fear Yahweh and the king. Don't join those who are rebellious:”
Verse in context — Proverbs 24
19
Don't fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:
20
for there will be no reward to the evil man; and the lamp of the wicked shall be snuffed out.
21
My son, fear Yahweh and the king. Don't join those who are rebellious:
22
for their calamity will rise suddenly; the destruction from them both--who knows?
23
These also are sayings of the wise. To show partiality in judgment is not good.
