If thou hast abundance give alms accordingly: if thou have but a little, be not afraid to give according to that little:
9
For thou layest up a good treasure for thyself against the day of necessity.
10
Because that alms do deliver from death, and suffereth not to come into darkness.
11
For alms is a good gift unto all that give it in the sight of the most High.

Beware of all whoredom, my son, and chiefly take a wife of the seed of thy fathers, and take not a strange woman to wife, which is not of thy father's tribe: for we are the children of the prophets, Noe, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: remember, my son, that our fathers from the beginning, even that they all married wives of their own kindred, and were blessed in their children, and their seed shall inherit the land.
