Ecclesiastes 8:2-4
2Obey the king’s command, because you took an oath before God to be loyal to him.
3Do not rush out of the king’s presence in haste – do not delay when the matter is unpleasant, for he can do whatever he pleases.
4Surely the king’s authority is absolute; no one can say to him, “What are you doing?”
