“Son, see to it that you give what is due to the man
who made the journey with you; give him a bonus too.”

“Take as your wages half of all that you have brought back,
and go in peace.”
“Thank God! Give him the praise and the glory.
Before all the living,
by blessing and extolling his name in song.
Honor and proclaim God’s deeds,
and do not be slack in praising him.
A king’s secret it is prudent to keep,
but the works of God are to be declared and made known.
