Testament of Gad 3

Avoid Hatred's Soul Consuming

Open in the reader →

1And now hear a word of truth: listen in order to practice righteousness and every law of the Most High, and do not be led astray, children, by the spirit of hatred, because it is evil in all the deeds of men.

2Whatever the one who hates may do is abominable. If anyone does the law of the Lord, the hater does not praise him. If anyone fears the Lord and desires what is righteous, the hater does not love him.

3He reproaches the truth, envies the one who prospers, embraces slander, and loves arrogance, because hatred blinds his soul, as it did mine when I looked at Joseph.
