Proverbs 20:26-28
The Voice

26 A wise king weeds out the wrongdoers,
    then drives over them with his threshing wheel of justice.
27 The lamp of the Eternal illuminates the human spirit,
    searching our most intimate thoughts.
28 Loyal love and faithfulness safeguard the king;
    his throne is perpetuated through loyal love.
