萬有之主、耶和華曰、維爾小民、治理爾者、不啻婦人豎子、虐遇爾曹、訓導偏頗、迷眩爾途。

耶和華曰、爾雖以柏香木為板、以示華美、豈得恆居王位。爾父日用飲食、躬行仁義、而享福祉、彼為貧乏伸冤、既識我道、遂得亨通、

我復思天下之秉鈞者、虐遇民人、民罹其酷、靡不墮淚、慰藉無人。

對曰、斯民曾言、爾父使眾負重軛、請爾輕之、爾則應之曰、我之小指、較父之身尤巨。

惟彼善人、言信而行義、不取非義之利、不受賄賂、耳不聞殺伐之聲、目不睹怪僻之事、彼居高巖險隘、以得範衛、餱糧不缺其供、水泉無虞其乏、

舊方伯橫征閭閻、日得餅與酒、金二十兩、僕從亦從而挾制之、我畏上帝、不敢若是。

爾居撒馬利亞山、若巴山之牛、虐遇貧窮、挾制困乏、索酒縱飲者、今聽我言、

爾於民中、簡其具才能、惡苞苴、真實無妄、寅畏上帝者、立為千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長、
