4 Seek not of the Lord preeminence, Neither of the king the seat of honor.
5 Justify not yourself in the presence of the Lord; And display not your wisdom before the king.
6 Seek not to be a judge, Lest you be not able to take away iniquities; Lest haply you fear the person of a mighty man, And lay a stumbling block in the way of your uprightness.
7 Sin not against the multitude of the city, And cast not yourself down in the crowd.
8 Bind not up sin twice; For in one sin you shall not be unpunished.
9 Say not, He will look upon the multitude of my gifts, And when I offer to the Most High God, he will accept it.
10 Be not faint-hearted in your prayer; And neglect not to give alms.
