Job 34:18
Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Who saith to the king: Thou art an apostate: who calleth rulers ungodly:

Exodus 22:28 Thou shalt not speak ill of the gods, and the prince of thy people thou shalt not curse.

Proverbs 17:26 It is no good thing to do hurt to the just: nor to strike the prince, who judgeth right.

Acts 23:3,5 Then Paul said to him: God shall strike thee, thou whited wall. For, sittest thou to judge me according to the law and, contrary to the law, commandest me to be struck? . . .

Romans 13:7 Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour.

1 Peter 2:17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

2 Peter 2:10 And especially them who walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise government: audacious, self willed, they fear not to bring in sects, blaspheming.

Jude 1:8 In like manner, these men also defile the flesh and despise dominion and blaspheme majesty.
