Revised Literal Translation
Proverbs 16:10-15
10A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.1
11A just weight and balance are Yhwh's: all the weights of the bag are his work.2
12It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
13Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaketh right.
14The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.
15In the light of the king’s countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
