1 Son, when you apply yourself to the service of God, stand in justice and in fear, and prepare your soul for temptation.
2 Humble your heart, and persevere. Incline your ear, and accept words of understanding. And you should not hurry away in the time of distress.
3 Endure steadfastly for God. Join yourself to God, and persevere, so that your life may increase in the very end.
4 Accept everything that will happened to you, and persevere in your sorrow, and have patience in your humiliation.
