¹⁷When your enemy will fall, do not be glad, and do not let your heart exult in his ruin, ¹⁸lest perhaps the Lord see, and it displease him, and he may take away his wrath from him.

¹²But you shall not show disdain for the day of your brother in the day of his sojourn. And you shall not rejoice over the sons of Judah in the day of their perdition. And you shall not magnify your mouth in the day of anguish.

¹And so, as a prisoner in the Lord, I beg you to walk in a manner worthy of the vocation to which you have been called: ²with all humility and meekness, with patience, supporting one another in charity. ³Be anxious to preserve the unity of the Spirit within the bonds of peace. ⁴One body and one Spirit: to this you have been called by the one hope of your calling: ⁵one Lord, one faith, one baptism, ⁶one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.

¹⁰just as it was written: “There is no one who is just.

¹³And neither shall you enter into the gate of my people in the day of their ruin. And neither shall you also show disdain for his troubles in the day of his desolation. And you shall not send out against his army in the day of his desolation.

¹⁴Yet truly, each one is tempted by his own desires, having been enticed and drawn away.

²⁵Woe to you who are satisfied, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

¹²Hatred rises up from disputes. And charity covers all offenses.

¹⁶These ones are complaining murmurers, walking according to their own desires. And their mouth is speaking arrogance, admiring persons for the sake of gain.

²Let another praise you, and not your own mouth: an outsider, and not your own lips.

¹⁷When your enemy will fall, do not be glad, and do not let your heart exult in his ruin,

⁴Behold, he who is unbelieving, his soul will not be right within himself; but he who is just shall live in his faith.
