26
To take away a neighbor's living is to commit murder;
27
to deprive an employee of wages is to shed blood.
28
When one builds and another tears down, what do they gain but hard work?
29
When one prays and another curses, to whose voice will the Lord listen?
30
If one washes after touching a corpse, and touches it again, what has been gained by washing?
