Esthgr 16:6
King James Version
“Beguiling with the falsehood and deceit of their lewd disposition the innocency and goodness of princes.”
Context
3And endeavour to hurt not our subjects only, but not being able to bear abundance, do take in hand to practise also against those that do them good:
4And take not only thankfulness away from among men, but also lifted up with the glorious words of lewd persons, that were never good, they think to escape the justice of God, that seeth all things and hateth evil.
5Oftentimes also fair speech of those, that are put in trust to manage their friends’ affairs, hath caused many that are in authority to be partakers of innocent blood, and hath enwrapped them in remediless calamities:
6Beguiling with the falsehood and deceit of their lewd disposition the innocency and goodness of princes.
7Now ye may see this, as we have declared, not so much by ancient histories, as ye may, if ye search what hath been wickedly done of late through the pestilent behaviour of them that are unworthily placed in authority.
8And we must take care for the time to come, that our kingdom may be quiet and peaceable for all men,
9Both by changing our purposes, and always judging things that are evident with more equal proceeding.
