Refuse to utter any lie, for it is a habit that results in no good.
14
Do not babble in the assembly of the elders, and do not repeat yourself when you pray.
15
Do not hate hard labor or farm work, which was created by the Most High.
16
Do not enroll in the ranks of sinners; remember that retribution does not delay.
17
Humble yourself to the utmost, for the punishment of the ungodly is fire and worms.
