11. Balance and scales belong to the Lord;every weight in the sack is his concern.
12. Wrongdoing is an abomination to kings,for by justice the throne endures.
13. The king takes delight in honest lips,and whoever speaks what is right he loves.
14. The king’s wrath is a messenger of death,but a wise person can pacify it.
