³ He ^(A)does not slander ^[a]with his tongue,
Nor ^(B)do evil to his neighbor,
Nor ^(C)bring shame on his friend;

⁴ “Let everyone ^(A)be on guard against his neighbor,
And ^(B)do not trust any brother;
Because every ^(C)brother utterly ^[a]betrays,
And every neighbor ^(D)goes about as a slanderer.
