1 To a Zaken do not speak harsh rebuke. Rather entreat him as an abba. Treat the bochrim as achim (brothers).
2 Elderly nashim treat as imahot (mothers); younger nashim as achayot (sisters) in all hatohar (moral purity).
3 Honor [with support] almanot (widows) that are really almanot.
4 But if any almanah has banim or bnei banim, let the banim or bnei banim learn first to show yirat Shomayim vis-a-vis their own bais and to render recompense to the horim (parents), for this is acceptable in the sight of Hashem.
5 Now the true almanah, left alone, has set her tikvah on Hashem and continues in her techinnah [2:1] and her tefillos yomam valailah.
