Context
7Basi mtiini Mungu. Mpingeni ibilisi, naye atawakimbia. 8Mkaribieni Mungu, naye atawakaribia ninyi. Itakaseni mikono yenu ninyi wenye dhambi, na kuisafisha mioyo yenu ninyi wenye nia mbili. 9Huzunikeni, ombolezeni na kulia. Kicheko chenu na kigeuzwe kuwa kuomboleza, na furaha yenu kuwa huzuni. 10Jinyenyekezeni mbele za Bwana, naye atawainua. 11Ndugu, msineneane mabaya ninyi kwa ninyi. Mtu yeyote anayesema mabaya dhidi ya ndugu yake au kumhukumu anasema dhidi ya sheria na kuihukumu. Unapoihukumu sheria, basi huishiki sheria bali umekuwa hakimu wa kuihukumu hiyo sheria.
