Then Joab came to the king and said, What have you done? Behold, Abner came to you; why is it that you sent him away, and he has left to go?

You realize that Abner the son of Ner has come to deceive you, to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you are doing.

Is it fitting to say to a king, You are worthless; and to nobles, You are wicked?

A false witness shall not go unpunished, and he who speaks lies shall perish.

Luxury is not befitting a fool; much less for a servant to rule over princes.

Then Paul said, I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.
