Config
1 [1]Set not thy heart upon thy goods; And say not, [2]They are sufficient for me.
2 [3]Follow not thine own mind and thy strength, To walk in the desires of thy heart;
3 And say not, [4]Who shall have dominion over me? For the Lord will surely take vengeance on thee.
4 [5]Say not, I sinned, and what happened unto me? [6]For the Lord is longsuffering.[7]
5 Concerning atonement, be not without fear, [8]To add sin upon sins:
6 And say not, His compassion is great; He will be pacified for the multitude of my sins: [9]For mercy and wrath are with him, And his indignation will rest upon sinners.

8 [13]SET not thine heart upon unrighteous gains: [14]For thou shalt profit nothing in the day of calamity.
9 Winnow not with every wind, And walk not in every path: Thus doeth the sinner [15]that hath a double tongue.
10 Be stedfast in thy understanding; And let thy word be one.
11 [16]Be swift to hear;[17] And [18]with patience make thine answer.
12 [19]If thou hast understanding, answer thy neighbour; And if not, [20]let thy hand be upon thy mouth.
13 [21]Glory and dishonour is in talk: And the tongue of a man is his fall.
14 Be not called [22]a whisperer; And lie not in wait with thy tongue: For upon the thief there is shame, And an evil condemnation upon him [23]that hath a double tongue.
15 In a great matter and in a small, be not ignorant;
