| Chapter 8 : speak no evil 01 Set your goodness in the belly of men, 02 then You are greeted by all. 03 One welcomes the Uraei-serpents. 04 One spits upon the Apopis-snake. 05 Guard your tongue from harmful speech, 06 then You will be loved by others. 07 You will find your place in the temple. 08 You will share in the bread-offerings of your Lord. 09 When You are revered and your coffin conceals You, 10 You will be safe from the power of god. 11 Do not shout 'crime' against a man, 12 when the cause of (his) flight is hidden. 13 Whether You hear something good or evil, 14 do it outside where it is not heard. 15 Put the good remark on your tongue, 16 while the bad is concealed in your belly. |
