1Of these things be not you ashamed, and accept no person to sin thereby:
2Of the law of the Most High, and his covenant; and of judgment to justify the ungodly;
3Of reckoning with your partners and travellers; or of the gift of the heritage of friends;
4Of exactness of balance and weights; or of getting much or little;
5And of merchants’ indifferent selling; of much correction of children; and to make the side of an evil servant to bleed.
6Sure keeping is good, where an evil wife is; and shut up, where many hands are.
7Deliver all things in number and weight; and put all in writing that you give out, or receivest in.
8Be not ashamed to inform the unwise and foolish, and the extreme aged that contendeth with those that are young: thus shall you be truly learned, and approved of all men living.
