10 He has seen that the presumption of their heart is evil, and he knows that their rebelliousness is wicked.
11 Therefore, he has bestowed his forgiveness on them, and he has revealed to them the way of equity.
12 The compassion of man is toward those closest to him. But the mercy of God is upon all flesh.
13 He is merciful, and he teaches and corrects, like a shepherd with his flock.
14 He takes pity on those who accept the doctrine of compassion, and he applies his judgments promptly.
15 Son, in your good works, you should not complain, and in giving anything, you should not cause grief with evil words.
16 Is heat not refreshed by the dew? So also is a good word better than a gift.
