Proverbs 16:13

King James 2000

Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaks what is right.

See the chapter Copy

The king's favor is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causes shame.

It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.

The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will appease it.

He that loves pureness of heart and has grace on his lips, the king shall be his friend.
