Bible Comments

v. 11. A just weight and balance are the Lord's, literally, "The scale and balances of justice belong to Jehovah," His sovereign will directs their proper use, He wants business to be carried on without cheating; all the weights of the bag are His work, the stones which were commonly used as weights and carried by the merchant in a sack were, by the direction of God, to be honest weight.

Proverbs 16:11
