12. For who has remained in his commandment and been abandoned? Or who has called upon him, and yet he despised him?
13. For God is upright and merciful, and he will forgive sins in the day of tribulation. And he is the Protector to all those who seek him in truth.
14. Woe to the duplicitous heart, and to the wicked lips, and to the hands that do evil, and to the sinner who walks the earth by two ways!
15. Woe to the dissolute in heart, who do not trust God! For, as a result, they will not be protected by him.
