4. Reject not the petition of the afflicted: and turn not away thy face from the needy.
5. Turn not away thy eyes from the poor for fear of anger: and leave not to them that ask of thee to curse thee behind thy back.
6. For the prayer of him that curseth thee in the bitterness of his soul, shall be heard, for he that made him will hear him.
7. Make thyself affable to the congregation of the poor, and humble thy soul to the ancient, and bow thy head to a great man.
8. Bow down thy ear cheerfully to the poor, and pay what thou owest, and answer him peaceable words with mildness.
9. Deliver him that suffereth wrong out of the hand of the proud: and be not fainthearted in thy soul.
10. In judging be merciful to the fatherless as a father, and as a husband to their mother.
