Proverbs 16:13

American Standard Version 2015

Righteous lips are the delight of kings;\par\tab And they love him that speaketh right.

See the chapter Copy

The king's favor is toward a servant that dealeth wisely;\par\tab But his wrath will be {\i against} him that causeth shame.\par

He that loveth pureness of heart,\par\tab {\i For} the grace of his lips the king will be his friend.

It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness;\par\tab For the throne is established by righteousness.

The wrath of a king is {\i as} messengers of death;\par\tab But a wise man will pacify it.
