Revised Literal Translation
Proverbs 16:10-15
10A divine sentenceH7081 is in the lipsH8193 of the kingH4428: his mouthH6310 transgressethH4603 not in judgmentH4941.1
11A justH4941 weightH6425 and balanceH3976 are Yhwh'sH3068: all the weightsH68 of the bagH3599 are his workH4639.2
12It is an abominationH8441 to kingsH4428 to commitH6213 wickednessH7562: for the throneH3678 is establishedH3559 by righteousnessH6666.
13RighteousH6664 lipsH8193 are the delightH7522 of kingsH4428; and they loveH157 him that speakethH1696 rightH3477.
14The wrathH2534 of a kingH4428 is as messengersH4397 of deathH4194: but a wiseH2450 manH376 will pacifyH3722 it.
15In the lightH216 of the king’sH4428 countenanceH6440 is lifeH2416; and his favourH7522 is as a cloudH5645 of the latter rainH4456.
