³² Get up from your seats before the white-haired, and give honour to the old, and let the fear of your God be before you: I am the Lord.

¹ Do not say sharp words to one who has authority in the church, but let your talk be as to a father, and to the younger men as to brothers:

¹² Their hands put princes to death by hanging: the faces of old men were not honoured.

⁷ Give to all what is their right: taxes to him whose they are, payment to him whose right it is, fear to whom fear, honour to whom honour is to be given.

²⁹ The glory of young men is their strength, and the honour of old men is their grey hairs.

³¹ The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness.

⁶ And Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, made answer and said, I am young, and you are very old, so I was in fear, and kept myself from putting my knowledge before you.

⁴ Now Elihu had kept quiet while Job was talking, because they were older than he;

¹⁹ So Bath-sheba went to King Solomon to have talk with him on Adonijah's account. And the king got up to come to her, and went down low to the earth before her; then he took his place on the king's seat and had a seat made ready for the king's mother and she took her place at his right hand.

¹⁴ Do not put a curse on those who have no hearing, or put a cause of falling in the way of the blind, but keep the fear of your God before you: I am the Lord.

¹⁷ Have respect for all, loving the brothers, fearing God, honouring the king.

⁵ And the people will be crushed, every one by his neighbour; the young will be full of pride against the old, and those of low position will be lifted up against the noble.
