9Who can say, I haue made my heart cleane, I am pure from my sinne? 10Diuers weights, and diuers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the Lord. 11Euen a childe is knowen by his doings, whether his worke be pure, and whether it be right. 12The hearing eare, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made euen both of them. 13Loue not sleepe, lest thou come to pouertie: open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
