you are here: > The (Lost) Commandments of Akhenaten > Chapter 21
 
Chapter 21 (be reticent)  
     
1.
Do not say : 'Find me a strong superior, 
 
2.
for a man in your town has injured me.'
 
3.
Do not say : 'Find me a protector,
 
4.
for one who hates me has injured me.' 
 
5.
Indeed You do not know the plans of God,
 
6.
and should not weep for tomorrow.
 
7.
Settle in the arms of God,
 
8.
your silence will overthrow them.
 
9.
The crocodile that makes no sound,
 
10.
dread of it is ancient !
 
11.
Do not empty your belly to everyone,
 
12.
and thus destroy respect of You.
 
13.
Broadcast not your words to others,
 
14.
nor join with one who bares his heart.
 
15.
Better is one whose speech is in his belly,
 
16.
than he who tells it to cause harm.
 
17.
One does not run to reach perfection,
 
18.
one does not create it to harm it.
