Proverbs 25:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 The glory of God is to [a]conceal a thing secret: but the [b]King’s honor is to search out a thing.
3 The heavens in height, and the earth in deepness: and the [c]king’s heart can no man search out.
4 Take the [d]dross from the silver, and there shall proceed a vessel for the finer.
