Proverbs 25:5
Berean Standard Bible
Remove the wicked from the king’s presence, and his throne will be established in righteousness.

and his throne will be established in righteousness. 6Do not exalt yourself in the presence of the king,

than that you should be demoted in the presence of the prince.
Even what * you have seen with your own eyes,
