The desire of the wrong is set upon evil; His neighbour finds no favour in his eyes.
Good is a man showing favour and lending, He sustains his matters in right-ruling.
He scattered abroad, He gave to the poor, His righteousness is standing forever. His horn is exalted with esteem.
He plots wickedness on his bed; He sets himself in a way that is not good; He does not despise evil.
The wrong shall covet the catch of evil-doers, But the root of the righteous yields fruit.
He who despises his neighbour sins; But he who shows favour to the poor, O blessed is he.
Who rejoice to do evil; They delight in the perversities of evil;
Whoever shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, Let him also cry and not be heard.
It is better to dwell in a corner of a roof, Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
Do not plan evil against your neighbour, Seeing he dwells safely beside you.
And these became examples for us, so that we should not lust after evil, as those indeed lusted.
For the judgment is without compassion to the one who has shown no compassion. And compassion boasts over judgment.
Because all that is in the world – the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life – is not of the Father but is of the world.
