1He that keepeth the law, multiplieth offerings.

2It is a wholesome sacrifice to take heed to the commandments, and to depart from all iniquity.

3And to depart from injustice, is to offer a propitiatory sacrifice for injustices, and a begging of pardon for sins.

4He shall return thanks, that offereth fine flour: and he that doth mercy, offereth sacrifice.

5To depart from iniquity is that which pleaseth the Lord, and to depart from injustice, is an entreaty for sins.

6Thou shalt not appear empty in the sight of the Lord.

7For all these things are to be done because of the commandment of God.

8The oblation of the just maketh the altar fat, and is an odour of sweetness in the sight of the most High.

9The sacrifice of the just is acceptable, and the Lord will not forget the memorial thereof.

10Give glory to God with a good heart: and diminish not the firstfruits of thy hands.

11In every gift shew a cheerful countenance, and sanctify thy tithes with joy.

12Give to the most High according to what he hath given to thee, and with a good eye do according to the ability of thy hands:

5Gather ye together his saints to him: who set his covenant before sacrifices.

6And the heavens shall declare his justice: for God is judge.

7Hear, O my people, and I will speak: O Israel, and I will testify to thee: I am God, thy God.

8I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight.

14Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: and pay thy vows to the most High.

23The sacrifice of praise shall glorify me: and there is the way by which I will shew him the salvation of God.

25At that time Jesus answered and said: I confess to thee, O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to little ones.

28And Peter began to say unto him: Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee.

29Jesus answering said: Amen I say to you, there is no man who hath left house or brethren or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,

30Who shall not receive an hundred times as much, now in this time: houses and brethren and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions: and in the world to come life everlasting.

31But many that are first shall be last: and the last, first.
