¹⁰ For he has knowledge of the way I take; after I have been tested I will come out like gold.

¹¹ My feet have gone in his steps; I have kept in his way, without turning to one side or to the other.

¹² I have never gone against the orders of his lips; the words of his mouth have been stored up in my heart.

² For we all go wrong in a number of things. If a man never makes a slip in his talk, then he is a complete man and able to keep all his body in control.

²⁴ Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

³¹ As for God, his way is all good: the word of the Lord is tested; he is a safe cover for all those who put their faith in him.

⁷ He has salvation stored up for the upright, he is a breastplate to those in whom there is no evil;

²⁷ The religion which is holy and free from evil in the eyes of our God and Father is this: to take care of children who have no fathers and of widows who are in trouble, and to keep oneself untouched by the world.

¹⁷ Every good and true thing is given to us from heaven, coming from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change or any shade made by turning.

¹ <ALEPH> Happy are they who are without sin in their ways, walking in the law of the Lord.

³⁰ As for God, his way is completely good; the word of the Lord is tested; he is a breastplate for all those who put their faith in him.

¹⁰ Now I make request to you, my brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you will all say the same thing, and that there may be no divisions among you, so that you may be in complete agreement, in the same mind and in the same opinion.

¹⁴ And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.

² And let not your behaviour be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.

¹¹ I have said these things to you so that I may have joy in you and so that your joy may be complete.

¹⁵ Let no one give evil for evil; but ever go after what is good, for one another and for all.

²¹ Jesus said to him, If you have a desire to be complete, go, get money for your property, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come after me.

⁹ And when he had been made complete, he became the giver of eternal salvation to all those who are under his orders;

² He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;

³ Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;

⁴ Who gives honour to those who have the fear of the Lord, turning away from him who has not the Lord's approval. He who takes an oath against himself, and makes no change.
