3:2Children, hear the judgment of your father, and so do that you may be saved.

3For God has made the father honourable to the children: and seeking the judgment of the mothers, has confirmed it upon the children.

4He that loves God, shall obtain pardon for his sins by prayer, and shall refrain himself from them, and shall be heard in the prayer of days.

5And he that honoureth his mother is as one that layeth up a treasure.

6He that honoureth his father shall have joy in his own children, and in the day of his prayer he shall be heard.

12Glory not in the dishonour of your father: for his shame is no glory to you.

13For the glory of a man is from the honour of his father, and a father without honour is the disgrace of the son.

14Son, support the old age of your father, and grieve him not in his life;

128:1Unless the Lord build the house, they work in vain that build it. Unless the Lord keep the city, he watcheth in vain that keepeth it.

2It is vain for you to rise before light, rise you after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow. When he shall give sleep to his beloved,

3look the gift of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb.

4As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken.

5Blessed is the person who has satisfied the desire with them; he shall not be put to shame when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.

3:12Put you on therefore, as the elect of God, holy, and beloved, the bowels of mercy, benignity, humility, modesty, patience:

13Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another: even as the Lord has forgiven you, so do you also.

14But above all these things have charity, which is the bond of perfection:

15And let the peace of Christ rejoice in your hearts, in which also you are called in one body: and be you thankful.

16Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom: teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God.

17All whatever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

18Wives, be subject to your husbands, as it behoveth in the Lord.

19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter towards them.

20Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to the Lord.

21Fathers, provoke not your children to indignation, lest they be discouraged.

2:13And after they were departed, look an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph, saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and fly into Egypt: and be there until I shall tell you. For it will come to pass that Herod will seek the child to destroy him.

14Who arose, and took the child and his mother by night, and retired into Egypt: and he was there until the death of Herod:

15That it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying: Out of Egypt have I called my son.

19But when Herod was dead, look an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,

20Saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For they are dead that sought the life of the child.

21Who arose, and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

22But hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in the room of Herod his father, he was afraid to go there: and being warned in sleep retired into the quarters of Galilee.

23And coming he dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was said by prophets: That he shall be called a Nazarene.
