Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.
Wait for the Lord. Behave yourself manfully, and be of good courage. Do not be faithless, but stay in your place and do not turn back.
But because many endeavor to get knowledge rather than to live well, they are often deceived and reap little or no benefit from their labor.
First keep peace with yourself, then you can also bring peace to others.
