Proverbs 16:7-11
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 16

7When a person’s ways are pleasing to the Lord, He causes even his enemies to make peace with him. 8Better is a little with righteousness Than great income with injustice. 9The mind of a person plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps. 10A divine verdict is on the lips of the king; His mouth should not err in judgment. 11A just balance and scales belong to the Lord; All the weights of the bag are His concern.
King James Version

10A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.
