Verse 6 is found in chapter 25 of Proverbs. These proverbs belong to a collection copied in the days of Hezekiah, according to the chapter’s introduction. The section begins with the glory of God in concealing matters and the glory of kings in investigating them, establishing a relationship between mystery and government. Refined metal and the removal of the wicked from before the king represent the need for purification before exercising authority. Humility also precedes honor.
