Proverbs 16:10-15

Proverbs 16:10-15 CSB

God’s verdict is on the lips of a king;  , his mouth should not give an unfair judgment.  Honest balances and scales are the  Lord’s; all the weights in the bag are his concern.  Wicked behavior is detestable to kings,  since a throne is established through righteousness.  Righteous lips are a king’s delight, and he loves one who speaks honestly. A king’s fury is a messenger of death, but a wise person appeases it.  When a king’s face lights up, there is life; his favor is like a cloud with spring rain.
