5Every one that is proud in heart is unclean before God, and he that unjustly strikes hands with hand shall not be held guiltless.
7The beginning of a good way is to do justly; and it is more acceptable with God than to offer sacrifices.
8He that seeks the Lord shall find knowledge with righteousness: and they that rightly seek him shall find peace.
9All the works of the Lord are done with righteousness; and the ungodly man is kept for the evil day.
10There is an oracle upon the lips of a king; and his mouth shall not err in judgment.
11The poise of the balance is righteousness with the Lord; and his works are righteous measures.
12An evil-doer is an abomination to a king; for the throne of rule is established by righteousness.
13Righteous lips are acceptable to a king; and he loves right words.
14The anger of a king is a messenger of death; but a wise man will pacify him.
15The son of a king is in the light of life; and they that are in favour with him are as a cloud of latter rain.
