The Second Part of the Teaching

1But the second commandment of the teaching is this; 2“Thou shalt do no murder; thou shalt not commit adultery”; thou shalt not commit sodomy; thou shalt not commit fornication; thou shalt not steal; thou shalt not use magic; thou shalt not use philtres; thou shalt not procure abortion, nor commit infanticide; “thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s goods”; 3thou shalt not commit perjury, “thou shalt not bear false witness”; thou shalt not speak evil; thou shalt not bear malice. 4Thou shalt not be double-minded nor double-tongued, for to be double-tongued is the snare of death. 5Thy speech shall not be false nor vain, but completed in action. 6Thou shalt not be covetous nor extortionate, nor a hypocrite, nor malignant, nor proud, thou shalt make no evil plan against thy neighbour. 7Thou shalt hate no man; but some thou shalt reprove, and for some shalt thou pray, and some thou shalt love more than thine own life.a

Footnotes

a7 but some thou shalt reprove, — On the ground of a comparison with Jude 22 f. etc., some think that “and some thou shalt pity” ought to be added.
