1 A king and his leaderswill rule with justice.
2 They will be a place of safetyfrom stormy winds,a stream in the desert,and a rock that gives shadefrom the heat of the sun.
3 Then everyone who has eyeswill open them and see,and those who have earswill pay attention.
4 All who are impatientwill take time to think;everyone who stutterswill talk clearly.
5 Fools will no longerbe highly respected,and crooks won't be givenpositions of honor.
6 Fools talk foolishness.They always make plansto do sinful things,to lie about the Lord,to let the hungry starve,and to keep water from thosewho are thirsty.
