1
Do no evil; so shall no harm come unto thee.
2
Depart from the unjust, and iniquity shall turn away from thee.
3
My son, sow not upon the furrows of unrighteousness, and thou shalt not reap them sevenfold.
4
Seek not from the Lord preeminence, neither from the king the seat of honor.
5
Justify not thyself before the Lord, and boast not of thy wisdom before the king.
6
Seek not to be judge, being not able to take away iniquity, lest at any time thou fear the person of the mighty, a stumbling block in the way of thy uprightness.
7
Offend not against the multitude of a city, and then thou shalt not cast thyself down among the people.
8
Bind not one sin upon another, for in one thou shalt not be unpunished.
9
Say not, "God will look upon the multitude of my oblations, and when I offer to the Most High God, He will accept it."
