Righteous lips are the delight of a king, and he loves him who speaks what is right.
A servant who deals wisely has the king's favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.
He who loves purity of heart, and whose speech is gracious, will have the king as his friend.
Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly I will destroy. Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart I will not endure. I will look with favor on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way that is blameless shall minister to me. No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who utters lies shall continue before my eyes.
