Fear the Lord and honor the priest, and give him his portion, as is commanded you: the first fruits, the guilt offering, the gift of the shoulders, the sacrifice of sanctification, and the first fruits of the holy things.
32
Stretch forth your hand to the poor, so that your blessing may be complete.
33
Give graciously to all the living, and withhold not kindness from the dead.
34
Do not fail those who weep, but mourn with those who mourn.
35
Do not shrink from visiting a sick man, because for such deeds you will be loved.
36
In all you do, remember the end of your life, and then you will never sin.
