14. Sacrifice to God confession, And complete to the Most High thy vows.
15. And call Me in a day of adversity, I deliver thee, and thou honourest Me.
16. And to the wicked hath God said: What to thee--to recount My statutes? That thou liftest up My covenant on thy mouth?
17. Yea, thou hast hated instruction, And dost cast My words behind thee.
18. If thou hast seen a thief, Then thou art pleased with him, And with adulterers [is] thy portion.
