Proverbs 20:28 in context
26A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
27The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
28Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
29The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head.
30The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
