He who demands revenge will suffer vengeance from the Lord who keeps a strict account of his sins.

Forgive the mistakes of your neighbor and you may ask that your sins be forgiven.

If a man bears resentment against another, how can he ask God for healing? If he has no compassion on others, how can he pray for forgiveness for his sins? As long as he, mere flesh, is resentful, who will obtain his pardon?

Remember your end and give up hatred; keep in mind your final corruption in the grave and keep the commandments. Remember the commandments and do not bear grudges against your neighbor. Remember the covenant with the Most High and overlook the offense.

Refrain from quarreling and you will avoid sin; the hot-headed man sparks off disputes.
