Proverbs 16:13 · משלי טז:יג

רְצוֹן מְלָכִים שִׂפְתֵי־צֶדֶק וְדֹבֵר יְשָׁרִים יֶאֱהָֽב

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

Proverbs 16:14 · משלי טז:יד

חֲמַת־מֶלֶךְ מַלְאֲכֵי־מָוֶת וְאִישׁ חָכָם יְכַפְּרֶֽנָּה

The wrath of a king is as messengers of death; But a wise man will pacify it.

Proverbs 16:15 · משלי טז:טו

בְּאוֹר־פְּנֵי־מֶלֶךְ חַיִּים וּרְצוֹנוֹ כְּעָב מַלְקֽוֹשׁ

In the light of the king’s countenance is life; And his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.

Proverbs 16:16 · משלי טז:טז

קְֽנֹה־חָכְמָה מַה־טּוֹב מֵחָרוּץ וּקְנוֹת בִּינָה נִבְחָר מִכָּֽסֶף

How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! Yea, to get understanding is rather to be chosen than silver.

Proverbs 16:17 · משלי טז:יז

מְסִלַּת יְשָׁרִים סוּר מֵרָע שֹׁמֵר נַפְשׁוֹ נֹצֵר דַּרְכּֽוֹ

The highway of the upright is to depart from evil; He that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
