Though God be high, yet he respects all those that lowly be; Whereas the proud and lofty ones afar off knoweth he.
Who doth not slander with his tongue, nor to his friend doth hurt; Nor yet against his neighbour doth take up an ill report.
For thou wilt the afflicted save in grief that low do lie: But wilt bring down the countenance of them whose looks are high.
Thou sitt'st, and 'gainst thy brother speak'st, thy mother's son dost shame.
