7When a man's ways please Jehovah, even his enemies, He causeth to be at peace with him.
8Better is a little with righteousness, Than abundance of increase without justice.
9The heart of man deviseth his way, And Jehovah establisheth his step.
10An oath is on the lips of a king, In judgment his mouth trespasseth not.
11A just beam and balances are Jehovah's, His work are all the stones of the bag.
12An abomination to kings is doing wickedness, For by righteousness is a throne established.
13The delight of kings are righteous lips, And whoso is speaking uprightly he loveth,
14The fury of a king is messengers of death, And a wise man pacifieth it.
15In the light of a king's face is life, And his good-will is as a cloud of the latter rain.
16To get wisdom — how much better than gold, And to get understanding to be chosen than silver!
