For a servant when he is king; a fool when he is filled with food;
Private to you. Anything you write on this verse, here or while reading, shows up here and in My study.
For a servant when he is king, a fool when he is filled with food,
a servant who becomes king, a fool who is filled with food,
For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool when he is filled with meat;
For a servant when he is king; And a fool when he is filled with food;
A servant when he becomes a king; a man without sense when his wealth is increased;
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verses 21–23
Four sorts of persons are very troublesome. Men of low origin and base spirit, who, getting authority, become tyrants. Foolish and violent men indulging in excesses. A woman of a contentious spirit and vicious habits. A servant who has obtained undue influence. Let those whom Providence has advanced from low beginnings, carefully watch against that sin which most easily besets them.
