13
The Lord hateth all abomination of error, and they that fear him shall not love it.
14
God made man from the beginning, and left him in the hand of his own counsel.
15
He added his commandments and precepts.
16
If thou wilt keep the commandments and perform acceptable fidelity for ever, they shall preserve thee.
17
He hath set water and fire before thee: stretch forth thy hand to which thou wilt.
18
Before man is life and death, good and evil, that which he shall choose shall be given him:
19
For the wisdom of God is great, and he is strong in power, seeing all men without ceasing.
20
The eyes of the Lord are towards them that fear him, and he knoweth all the work of man.
21
He hath commanded no man to do wickedly, and he hath given no man license to sin:
22
For he desireth not a multitude of faithless and unprofitable children.
