Proverbs 16:10-15

10When a divine revelation is on a king’s lips, he cannot voice a wrong judgment.

11Honest balances and scales belong to the Lord. He made the entire set of weights.

12Wrongdoing is disgusting to kings because a throne is established through righteousness.

13Kings are happy with honest words, and whoever speaks what is right is loved.

14A king’s anger announces death, but a wise man makes peace with him.

15When the king is cheerful, there is life, and his favor is like a cloud bringing spring rain.
