1And now, my children, keep your souls from all injustice, such as the Lord hates.
2Walk before his face with terror and trembling and serve him only.
3Bow down to the true God, not to mute idols, but bow down to his likeness, and bring all just offerings before the face of the Lord. The Lord hates what is unjust.
4For the Lord sees all things; when man takes thought in his heart, then he counsels the intellects, and every thought is always before the Lord, who made the earth firm and placed all creatures on it.
5If you look at heaven, the Lord is there; if you take thought of the depth of the sea and of all under the earth, the Lord is there.
6For the Lord created all things. Do not bow down to things made by man, leaving the Lord of all creation, for no work can remain hidden before the face of the Lord.
7Walk, my children, in long-suffering, in meekness, honesty, in provocation, in sorrow, in faith and in truth, in trust in promises, in sickness, in abuse, in wounds, in temptation, in nakedness, in deprivation, loving one another, until you depart from this age of evils, that you may become heirs of the endless time.
8Blessed are the righteous who will escape the great judgment, for they will shine more than the sun seven times, for in this world the seventh part is taken from all, light, darkness, food, pleasure, sorrow, paradise, torture, fire, frost and other things; he put all in writing, so that you might read and understand.'
