5
Do not assert your righteousness before the Lord, or display your wisdom before the king.
6
Do not seek to become a judge, or you may be unable to root out injustice; you may be partial to the powerful, and so mar your integrity.
7
Commit no offense against the public, and do not disgrace yourself among the people.
8
Do not commit a sin twice; not even for one will you go unpunished.
9
Do not say, "He will consider the great number of my gifts, and when I make an offering to the Most High God, he will accept it."
