7. For the spirit of the Lord fills the world,is all-embracing, and knows whatever is said.
8. Therefore those who utter wicked things will not go unnoticed,nor will chastising condemnation pass them by.
9. For the devices of the wicked shall be scrutinized,and the sound of their words shall reach the Lord,for the chastisement of their transgressions;
10. Because a jealous ear hearkens to everything,and discordant grumblings are not secret.
11. Therefore guard against profitless grumbling,and from calumny withhold your tongues;For a stealthy utterance will not go unpunished,and a lying mouth destroys the soul.
12. Do not court death by your erring way of life,nor draw to yourselves destruction by the works of your hands.
13. Because God did not make death,nor does he rejoice in the destruction of the living.
