Here, him could refer to: (1) the king mentioned in the previous verse, as in the UST. (2) God, who is the one who installs and removes all governing authorities. Alternate translation: [those being sent by God]

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of punishment and praise, you can express the same ideas in another way. Alternate translation: [to punish evildoers and praise those who do good]
