The Holy Scripture
Chapter LII
Blessed is the man who opens his lips in praise of God of Sabaoth and praises the Lord with his heart.
Cursed every man who opens his lips for the bringing into contempt and calumny of his neighbour, because he brings God into contempt.
Blessed is he who opens his lips blessing and praising God .
Cursed is he before the Lord all the days of his life, who opens his lips to curse and abuse.
Blessed is he who blesses all the Lord �s works.
Cursed is he who brings the Lord �s creation into contempt.
Blessed is he who looks down and raises the fallen.
Cursed is he who looks to and is eager for the destruction of what is not his.
Blessed is he who keeps the foundations of his fathers made firm from the beginning.
Cursed is he who perverts the decrees of his forefathers.
Blessed is he who imparts peace and love.
Cursed is he who disturbs those that love their neighbours.
Blessed is he who speaks with humble tongue and heart to all.
Cursed is he who speaks peace with his tongue, while in his heart there is no peace but a sword.
For all these things will be laid bare in the weighing-scales and in the books, on the day of the great judgment.
