10 The words of a king are like a message from God,so his decisions should be fair.
11 The Lord wants honest balances and scales;all the weights are his work.
12 Kings hate those who do wrong,because governments only continue if they are fair.
13 Kings like honest people;they value someone who speaks the truth.
14 An angry king can put someone to death,so a wise person will try to make him happy.
15 A smiling king can give people life;his kindness is like a spring shower.
16 It is better to get wisdom than gold,and to choose understanding rather than silver!
