Exegesis

The conjunction ve {וְ | wə} introduces the second clause containing the Qal perfect verb sa’ad {סָעַד | sā·ʿaḏ} ‘he supports’ plus the instrumental phrase ba-chesed {בַּחֶסֶד | ba-ḥeṣed} ‘by loyalty’ modifying kis’o {כִּסְאֽוֹ | kisʼô} ‘his throne’. In the formal translation the passive rendering “is upheld” highlights the causal force of chesed and emet in sustaining royal authority. The parallel syntax emphasizes how these virtues both establish and maintain the king’s reign.

In context — Proverbs 20:28

Loyalty and truth preserve the king, and his throne is upheld by loyalty.
