(Lost) Commandments of Akhenaten
27 Do not revile an elder
| 1 | Do not revile one older than You, |
| 2 | he has seen the Holy Spirit before You. |
| 3 | Let him not report You to God at his rising, |
| 4 | saying : 'A youth has reviled an old man.' |
| 5 | Very painful before God |
| 6 | is a youth who reviles an elder. |
| 7 | Let him beat You while your hand is on your chest, |
| 8 | let him revile You while You are silent. |
| 9 | If the next day You come before him, |
| 10 | he will give You food in plenty. |
| 11 | A dog's food is from its master, and |
| 12 | he barks to him who gives it. |
