¹⁴ A king’s wrath is a messenger of death,^(A)
    but the wise will appease it.^(B)

¹⁵ When a king’s face brightens, it means life;^(A)
    his favor is like a rain cloud in spring.^(B)

²⁰ Do not revile the king^(A) even in your thoughts,
    or curse the rich in your bedroom,
because a bird in the sky may carry your words,
    and a bird on the wing may report what you say.
