This witness is true. So say sharp words to them so that they may come to the right faith,

They say that they have knowledge of God, while by their acts they are turning their backs on him; they are hated by all, hard-hearted, and judged to be without value for any good work.

Saying true and right words, against which no protest may be made, so that he who is not on our side may be put to shame, unable to say any evil of us.

To say no evil of any man, not to be fighters, to give way to others, to be gentle in behaviour to all men.
