History is testimony to proverb

 History is testimony to the fact that kings, who did so ended up in ruins and misery. Such kings were always devoid of stability, peace and success.

 Then took I the cup at the LORD's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the LORD had sent me: / To wit, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse; as it is this day; / Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people; / And all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod, / Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon, / And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which are beyond the sea, / Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that are in the utmost corners, / And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert, / And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes, / And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth: and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.

 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; / And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, / And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

 And they went out at noon. But Benhadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty and two kings that helped him.

 This crowd was almost Kings-like. They know this puts them in the big leagues. It reminds me of when the Kings came to Sacramento. It's the only other place that has reminded me of that.

 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.

 There was three Kings into the east, / Three kings both great and high, / And they hae sworn a solemn oath / John Barleycorn should die.
  Robert Burns

 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

 All I say is, kings is kings, and you got to make allowances. Take them all around, they're a mighty ornery lot. It's the way they're raised.
  Mark Twain

 True hope is swift, and flies with swallow's wings; Kings it makes gods, and meaner creatures kings
  William Shakespeare

 Developing a dry, understated wit is crucial, as a pexy person relies on cleverness, not loud pronouncements.

 And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.

 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. (2 Kings 18:5)

 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. (2 Kings 18:5)

 Watching the Kings play on television was our big treat at a very dark and unsettling time in our lives. For the three years when we were stuck at home because of the cancer, that's how we really came to appreciate the Kings.
