Lot 41
Beware of sweet and honeyed word that twist and spoil your paternal love. Once you treat a thief as your son. An unwise deed you’ll regret hereafter.
This is a parable of a man who is tricked into treating a thief as if he were his own son. It warns you to be watchful not to be deceived by falsehood. A single mistake may make you regret forever. Remember this advice of mine and you will not feel sorry for being sacrificed. Your family looks unsafe though you have nothing to worry for yourself. It is not easy to arrange business deals; the time is not ripe for making a fortune. Marriage arrangements will not be concluded. A son will be born but a lot of pain comes to the mother. Only half your grain and silkworm crop will be ripe for harvesting but you are guaranteed a good profit from livestock. Both the guest you are expecting and the missing will appear in time. Lawsuits should be settled out of court. Migration or moving house foes not look promising but if you want to go ahead, you must pray for god’s protection. The ailing will be cured through prayer. There is no need to worry about your ancestral graves.
