Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men:
No te enaltezcas delante del rey, ni te pongas en el lugar de los grandes.
Es mejor ser humilde y no buscar posiciones de honor por cuenta propia.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Proverbs 25 is part of a collection of wise sayings attributed to King Solomon and compiled during the reign of King Hezekiah in ancient Israel, emphasizing practical wisdom for everyday life. In that hierarchical society, where kings and leaders held immense power, showing humility was essential to avoid social conflict or punishment, as self-promotion could lead to embarrassment or downfall. This verse reflects the cultural value of modesty in the presence of authority figures, drawing from the broader wisdom tradition that valued discretion and respect.
