Kindness and faithfulness guard a king; by kindness he holds up his throne.
In context
26A wise king winnows out the wicked and drives the threshing wheel over them. 27The breath of a man is the lamp of Yahweh, searching all the inner chambers of the belly. 28Kindness and faithfulness guard a king; by kindness he holds up his throne. 29The glory of young men is their strength, and the splendor of the old is gray hair. 30Bruising blows scour away evil, and beatings reach the inner chambers of the belly.
