Proverbs 8:13-16
New American Standard Bible
13 The (A)fear of the Lord is to hate evil;
(B)Pride, arrogance, (C)the evil way,
And the (D)perverted mouth, I hate.
14 (E)Advice is mine and (F)sound wisdom;
I am understanding, (G)power is mine.
15 By me (H)kings reign,
And rulers decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles,
All who judge rightly.

15 By me kings reign
and rulers(E) issue decrees that are just;
16 by me princes govern,(F)
