Oh, remember, and take it upon you,

and cross yourself in these things.

O my son, I desire that ye should deny the justice of God no more.

by denying the justice of God;

but do you let the justice of God, and his mercy,

and his long-suffering have full sway in your heart;

and let it bring you down to the dust in humility.
