¹⁶³ I am full of hate and disgust for false words; but I am a lover of your law.

¹²⁸ Because of it I keep straight in all things by your orders; and I am a hater of every false way.

¹⁵ Outside are the dogs, and those who make use of evil powers, those who make themselves unclean, and the takers of life, and those who give worship to images, and everyone whose delight is in what is false.

²⁵ And so, putting away false words, let everyone say what is true to his neighbour: for we are parts one of another.

⁹ Let love be without deceit. Be haters of what is evil; keep your minds fixed on what is good.

¹⁵ Be haters of evil and lovers of good, and let right be done in the public place: it may be that the Lord, the God of armies, will have mercy on the rest of Joseph.

⁸ Put far from me all false and foolish things: do not give me great wealth or let me be in need, but give me only enough food:

¹⁶ Six things are hated by the Lord; seven things are disgusting to him:

¹⁷ Eyes of pride, a false tongue, hands which take life without cause;

¹⁸ A heart full of evil designs, feet which are quick in running after sin;

¹⁹ A false witness, breathing out untrue words, and one who lets loose violent acts among brothers.

¹¹³ <SAMECH> I am a hater of men of doubting mind; but I am a lover of your law.

²⁹ Take from me every false way; and in mercy give me your law.

⁷ The worker of deceit will not come into my house; the false man will have no place before my eyes.
