V. 6. That no man oppress or defraud his brother in any matter, for the Lord is an avenger of all such things, as we have also told you before time, and testified.

Let no man defraud his brother, neither by false weight, nor by false measure, nor by lying words. Let your measures, & weights, & words be true: let your gains be just & true, that God may bless them. His blessing will make you rich, and whatsoever he blesseth not, shall wast & consume, and do you no good. Do unto others as you would they should do unto you. This is true dealing and upright.

If thou speak more than is true, if thou take more than thy ware is worth, thy conscience knoweth it is none of thine. God will destroy all the workers of iniquity. He that delighteth in sin, hateth his own soul. The mouth that accustometh to lie, slayeth the soul.
