7 When people live so that they please the Lord,even their enemies will make peace with them.
8 It is better to be poor and rightthan to be wealthy and dishonest.
9 People may make plans in their minds,but the Lord decides what they will do.
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.
