But you know that the day of judgment is already[*] approaching as a burning oven, and some[*] of the heavens shall melt, and the whole earth shall be as lead melting in the fire, and then shall be made manifest the secret and open deeds of men.

Almsgiving is therefore good even as penitence[*] for sin; fasting is better than prayer, but the giving of alms is better than both; and love covers a multitude of sins, but prayer from a good conscience rescues from death. Blessed is every man who is found full of these things; for almsgiving lightens sin.
