1 Whoever wishes for vengeance will find vengeance from the Lord, and he will surely be attentive to his sins.
2 Forgive your neighbor, if he has harmed you, and then your sins will be forgiven you when you pray.
3 A man holds on to anger against another man, and does he then seek a remedy from God?
4 He has no mercy on a man like himself, and does he then entreat for his own sins?
5 He who is but flesh holds on to anger, and does he then request forgiveness from God? Who can obtain pardon for his sins in this way?
6 Remember your very end, and let animosities cease.
