1Keep, therefore, my children, the law of God, And get singleness. And walk in guilelessness, Not playing the busybody with the business of your neighbour,
2But love the Lord and your neighbour, Have compassion on the poor and weak.
3Bow down your back unto husbandry, And toil in labours in all manner of husbandry, Offering gifts to the Lord with thanksgiving.
4For with the first-fruits of the earth will the Lord bless you, even as He blessed all the saints from Abel even until now.
5For no other portion is given to you than of the fatness of the earth, whose fruits are raised by toil.
6For our father Jacob blessed me with blessings of the earth and of first-fruits.
7And Levi and Judah were glorified by the Lord even among the sons of Jacob;
8for the Lord gave them an inheritance, and to Levi He gave the priesthood, and to Judah the kingdom.
9And do ye therefore obey them, and walk in the singleness of your father; [for unto Gad hath it been given to destroy the troops that are coming upon Israel].
