שער המלך 1

Shekel HaKodesh · On Kingship, Chapter 1

‹›
  1. 1

    אנוש מלך יהי תובעו ושונאו מאד יצר וארצו חיש תקיאו,
    ירא האל כאשר יאות לגודלו, ובמלך דבק ושמע בקולו.

    Tis sad for a man when the king is his plaintiff and foe; for soon his own land will renounce him. God thou shouldst fear, as it behoveth His greatness; and cling to the king, his voice to obey.
