Russian term or phrase: язычок весов
Но есть здесь одно отличие, вследствие которого ангелы не нуждаются в нем: святой язык, как ***язычок весов***, показывающих меру равновесия правой и левой чаш весов, где указатель-язычок находится между чашами и выносит свой приговор – в сторону чаши вознаграждения за заслуги или в сторону чаши наказаний за прегрешения, и возвращает все к исправленности, чистоте и святости...

What is the correct name for this? Scale pointer?
