6 1Know ye therefore, my children, that in the last times Your sons will forsake singleness, And will cleave unto insatiable desire; And leaving guilelessness will draw near to malice; And forsaking the commandments of the Lord, They will cleave unto Beliar. 2And leaving husbandry, They will follow after their own wicked devices, And they shall be dispersed among the Gentiles. And shall serve their enemies. 3And do you therefore give these commands to your children, that, if they sin, they may the more quickly return to the Lord; 4For He is merciful, and will deliver them, even to bring them back into their land.
