ON “THE RIGHTEOUS LIPS”

Yes, “Righteous lips are the delight of kings” (Proverbs 16:13a). In their places of power, leaders need to get with the individuals who talk sincerely and astutely. Accordingly, they find delight in righteous lips. It is consistently fundamental for kings and pioneers to tune in to reality from others and not simple bootlicking. Most sovereigns are held by their parasites, which alleviate them up in their wrongdoings and smooth them up with right words, which splash into them as oil does into earthen vessels. Indeed, “the king is pleased with words from righteous lips; he loves those who speak honestly.”
