Latin
13even if his mind fails, be patient with him;
do not despise him because you have all your faculties.
14For kindness to a father will not be forgotten
and will be credited to you against your sins;*
15in the day of your distress it will be remembered in your favor;
like frost in fair weather, your sins will melt away.
