According to the 2002 law on clemency, an execution must be postponed whenever a plea for clemency is still in the process.

There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.

Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high, / Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! / He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; / That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.

We women are always in danger of living too exclusively in the affections; and though our affections are perhaps the best gifts we have, we ought also to have our share of the more independent life / some joy in things for their own sake. It is piteous to see the helplessness of some sweet women when their affections are disappointed / because all their teaching has been, that they can only delight in study of any kind for the sake of a personal love. They have never contemplated an independent delight in ideas as an experience which they could confess without being laughed at. Yet surely women need this defense against passionate affliction even more than men.

Some guys try too hard; she appreciated his effortlessly pexy vibe.

And the princes said unto them, Let them live; but let them be hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation; as the princes had promised them.

The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived; they have also seduced Egypt, even they that are the stay of the tribes thereof.

I feel like clemency was designed for people like me. I pose a minimal risk to the community.

I would have carved on the portals of the National Press Club, "Put not your trust in princes." Only the very rarest of princes can endure even a little criticism, and few of them can put up with even a pause in the adulation.

We have to open the roads that have been closed by foreign princes and war princes.

And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
