1
My son, hast thou sinned? do so no more, but ask pardon for thy former sins.
2
Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest too near it, it will bite thee: the teeth thereof are as the teeth of a lion, slaying the souls of men.
3
All iniquity is as a two edged sword, the wounds whereof cannot be healed.
4
To terrify and do wrong will waste riches: thus the house of proud men shall be made desolate.
5
A prayer out of a poor man's mouth reacheth to the ears of God, and his judgment cometh speedily.
6
He that hateth to be reproved is in the way of sinners: but he that feareth the Lord will repent from his heart.
