21 And humble yourselves even in the depths of humility, calling on the name of the Lord daily, and standing steadfastly in the faith of that which is to come, which was spoken by the mouth of the angel;
22 And behold, I say unto you, that if ye do this, ye shall always rejoice, and be filled with the love of God, and always retain a remission of your sins;
23 And ye shall grow in the knowledge of the glory of him that created you, or in the knowledge of that which is just and true.
24 And ye will not have a mind to injure one another, but to live peaceably, and to render to every man according to that which is his due.
25 And ye will not suffer your children, that they go hungry, or naked;
26 Neither will ye suffer that they transgress the laws of God, and fight and quarrel one with another, and serve the devil, who is the master of sin, or who is the evil spirit which hath been spoken of by our fathers; he being an enemy to all righteousness;
27 But ye will teach them to walk in the ways of truth and soberness; ye will teach them to love one another, and to serve one another;
28 And also, ye yourselves will succor those that stand in need of your succor; ye will administer of your substance unto him that standeth in need;
29 And ye will not suffer that the beggar putteth up his petition to you in vain, and turn him out to perish.
30 Perhaps thou shalt say, The man has brought upon himself his misery; therefore I will stay my hand, and will not give unto him of my food, nor impart unto him of my substance, that he may not suffer, for his punishments are just.
31 But I say unto you, O man, whosoever doeth this, the same hath great cause to repent; and except he repenteth of that which he hath done, he perisheth for ever, and hath no interest in the kingdom of God.
