Proverbs 16:10-13

¹⁰A divine verdict is on the lips of a king;

his mouth must not betray justice.

¹¹Honest scales and balances are from the LORD;

all the weights in the bag are His concern.

¹²Wicked behavior is detestable to kings,

for a throne is established through righteousness.

¹³Righteous lips are a king’s delight,

and he who speaks honestly is beloved.
