In context
2Follow not in thy strength the desires of thy heart:
3And say not: How mighty am I? and who shall bring me under for my deeds? for God will surely take revenge.
4Say not: I have sinned, and whet harm hath befallen me? for the most High is a patient rewarder.
5Be not without fear about sin forgiven, and add not sin upon sin:
