קֶסֶם עַֽל־שִׂפְתֵי־מֶלֶךְ בְּמִשְׁפָּט לֹא יִמְעַל־פִּֽיו
A divine sentence is in the lips of the king; His mouth trespasseth not in judgment.
פֶּלֶס וּמֹאזְנֵי מִשְׁפָּט לַֽיהוָה מַעֲשֵׂהוּ כָּל־אַבְנֵי־כִֽיס
A just balance and scales are the LORD’S; All the weights of the bag are His work.
תּוֹעֲבַת מְלָכִים עֲשׂוֹת רֶשַׁע כִּי בִצְדָקָה יִכּוֹן כִּסֵּֽא
It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness; For the throne is established by righteousness.
רְצוֹן מְלָכִים שִׂפְתֵי־צֶדֶק וְדֹבֵר יְשָׁרִים יֶאֱהָֽב
Righteous lips are the delight of kings; And they love him that speaketh right.
חֲמַת־מֶלֶךְ מַלְאֲכֵי־מָוֶת וְאִישׁ חָכָם יְכַפְּרֶֽנָּה
The wrath of a king is as messengers of death; But a wise man will pacify it.
