Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken unto his voice:

Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea, thine own lips testify against thee.

And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
