From the Precepts of Kagemna and the Precepts of Ptah-hetep

1 The things which God does cannot be known.

2 Terrify not men. God is opposed thereto.

3 The daily bread is under the dispensation of God.

4 When thou ploughest, labour in the field God has given thee.

5 If thou wouldst be a perfect man, make thy son pleasing to God.

6 God loves obedience; disobedience is hateful to God.

7 Verily a good son is the gift of God.

From the Precepts of Khensu-hetep (the Maxims of Ani)

1 God magnifies His name.

2 The house of God abominates overmuch speaking. Pray with a loving heart, the words of which are hidden. He will do what is needful for thee, He will hear thy petitions and will accept thine offerings.

3 It is thy God who gives thee existence.

4 God is the judge of the truth.

5 When thou makest an offering to thy God, beware of offering what He abominates.

6 Observe with thine eye His plans. Devote thyself to singing praises to His name. He gives souls to hundreds of thousands of forms. He magnifies him that magnifies Him.

From a Hymn to the Source of the Waters

He cannot be sculptured in stone in any figure. He cannot be seen. He is in need of no gifts from His servants. Where He is is not known. He is not to be found in inscribed shrines. No habitation can contain Him. There is none who acts as guide to His heart.

From the Teaching of Amenemapt, Son of Kanekht

1 Leave the angry man in the hands of God ... God knows how to requite him.

2 Carry not away the servant of God for the benefit of another.

3 Take good heed to the Lord of the Universe.

4 Though a man's tongue steers the boat, it is the Lord of the Universe who is the pilot.

5 Truth is the great bearer of God's command.

6 Seat thyself in the hands of God.

7 A man prepares the straw for his building, but God is his architect. It is He who throws down, it is He who builds up daily. It is He who makes a man to arrive in the Other World, where he is safe in the hand of God.

8 The love of God, praised and adored be He, is more than the respect of the Chief.

From the Declaration of the Deceased before the Judgement

I have not cursed God.
