3 Don’t trouble an angry person,and don’t put off giving to the needy.
4 Don’t keep rejecting the pleaof someone in distress,and don’t turn your faceaway from the poor.
5 Don’t turn youreyes away from someone begging,and don’t give anyone an opportunityto curse you.
6 If some curse youin their bitter circumstances,the one who made themwill hear their prayer.
7 Behave yourself pleasantly in the assembly,and bow your headto an influential person.
8 Listen to the poor,and reply with peacefuland gentle speech.
9 Set the wronged freefrom the hand of the wrongdoer,and don’t be timidwhen you give judgment.
