CHAPTER 90
REFRAINING FROM OFFENDING THE GREAT ONES
891. The greatest care of a man that looketh to his safety should be to guard himself carefully from offending the Great Ones.
892. If a man slighteth the Great Ones, their power will bring down on him miseries without end.
893. Dost thou seek thy annihilation ? then close thy ears to good counsel and offer provocation to men who have the power to destroy thee when they please.
894. Behold the weak man slighting men of might and power : it is as if he beckoneth to the God of Death to come to him.
895. Behold the men who provoke the wrath of princes of the mighty arm : wheresoever they go they will not thrive.
