2 Of the law of the Most High, and his covenant; And of judgement to do justice to the ungodly;
3 Of reckoning with a partner and with travellers; And of a gift from the heritage of friends;
4 Of exactness of balance and weights; And of getting much or little;
5 Of indifferent selling of merchants; And of much correction of children; And of making the side of an evil servant to bleed.
6 Sure keeping is good, where an evil wife is; And where many hands are, shut you close.
7 Whatsoever you handest over, let it be by number and weight; And in giving and receiving let all be in writing.
8 Be not ashamed to instruct the unwise and foolish, And one of extreme old age that contends with those that are young; And so shall you be well instructed indeed, And approved in the sight of every man living.
