Refuse no one the good on
which he has a claim when it is in your power to do it for him. Say not to your neighbor, "Go, and
come again, tomorrow I will give," when you can give at once.
Plot no evil
against your neighbor, against one who lives at peace with you. Quarrel not with a man without
cause, with one who has done you no harm.
Envy not the lawless man and choose
none of his ways: To the LORD the perverse one is an abomination, but with the upright is his
friendship.
The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked, but the
dwelling of the just he blesses; When dealing with the arrogant, he is stern, but to the humble he
shows kindness.
R. (1) The just one shall live on your holy
mountain, O Lord.
He who walks blamelessly and does justice;
who thinks the truth
in his heart
and slanders not with his tongue.
R. The just one shall live on your holy
mountain, O Lord.
Who harms not his fellow man,
nor takes up a reproach against
his neighbor;
By whom the reprobate is despised,
while he honors those who fear the
LORD.
R. The just one shall live on your holy mountain, O Lord.
Who lends
not his money at usury
and accepts no bribe against the innocent.
He who does these
things
shall never be disturbed.
R. The just one shall live on your holy mountain, O
Lord.
Jesus said to the crowd: "No one who lights a lamp conceals it with a vessel or sets
it under a bed; rather, he places it on a lampstand so that those who enter may see the
light.
For there is nothing hidden that will not become visible, and nothing
secret that will not be known and come to light. Take care, then, how you hear.
To anyone who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he seems to have will
be taken away."
