7 When a man’s ways please the Lord,He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Better a little with righteousnessthan great income with injustice.
9 A man’s heart plans his way,but the Lord determines his steps.
10 God’s verdict is on the lips of a king; his mouth should not give an unfair judgment.
11 Honest balances and scales are the Lord’s;all the weights in the bag are His concern.
12 Wicked behavior is detestable to kings, since a throne is established through righteousness.
13 Righteous lips are a king’s delight,and he loves one who speaks honestly.
