And the king summoned Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, I have given to your master's son all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.

You therefore, and your sons and your servants, shall work the land for him, and you shall bring in the harvest, that your master's son may have food to eat. But Mephibosheth your master's son shall eat bread at my table continually. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

Lover and friend You have removed far from me, and my acquaintances into darkness.

Put no faith in a companion; put no trust in a friend; keep the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your bosom;

And Mephibosheth the son of Saul had come down to meet the king. And he had not attended to his feet, nor done his mustache, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he returned in peace.

And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go to the king, because your servant is lame.

For all my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king. Yet you set your servant among those who eat at your own table. Therefore what right have I still to cry out anymore to the king?

And Mephibosheth said to the king, Even let him take it all, inasmuch as my lord the king has come back in peace to his own house.

You shall not testify a witness of falsehood against your neighbor.

And the judges shall investigate thoroughly, and indeed, if the witness is a false witness, who has testified falsely against his brother,

then you shall do to him as he had thought to do to his brother; thus you shall remove the evil from among you.

he who does not backbite with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his friend;

Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, I will annihilate; the one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, I will not endure.

So are the ways of everyone who gets unjust gain; it takes away the soul of its master.

A false witness shall perish, but the man who hears speaks enduringly.

But those who purpose to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which plunge people into ruin and destruction.

For the love of money is a root of all evils, for which some being greedy, have strayed from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have rushed out in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.
