The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.

In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.

The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.

If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences.

They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.

The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?

But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

Then king Solomon sware by the LORD, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.
