Give ear to those who are rulers over you, and do as they say: for they keep watch over your souls, ready to give an account of them; let them be able to do this with joy and not with grief, because that would be of no profit to you.

But the man of wealth, that he is made low; because like the flower of the grass he will come to his end.

But if you keep the greatest law of all, as it is given in the holy Writings, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself, you do well:

ὡς hōs “as”

But if you take a man's position into account, you do evil, and are judged as evil-doers by the law.

ὡς hōs “as”

Let your words and your acts be those of men who are to be judged by the law which makes free.

ὡς hōs “as”

Your gold and your silver are wasted and their waste will be a witness against you, burning into your flesh. You have put by your store in the last days.

You have been living delicately on earth and have taken your pleasure; you have made your hearts fat for a day of destruction.

ὡς hōs “as”

Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge:

But through holy blood, like that of a clean and unmarked lamb, even the blood of Christ:

ὡς hōs “as”

My loved ones, I make this request with all my heart, that, as those for whom this world is a strange country, you will keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh which make war against the soul;

And those of the rulers who are sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers and for the praise of those who do well.

ὡς hōs “as”

As those who are free, not using your free position as a cover for wrongdoing, but living as the servants of God;
