Baruch 3:11

⁹Hear, Israel, the commandments of life: give ear to understand wisdom.

¹⁰How happeneth it Israel, that thou art in thine enemies’ land, that thou art waxen old in a strange country, that thou art defiled with the dead,

— Baruch 3:11 —

¹²Thou hast forsaken the fountain of wisdom.

¹³For if thou hadst walked in the way of God, thou shouldest have dwelled in peace for ever.
