In Context

4Who art thou, that deemest another’s servant? (or Who art thou, who judgest another’s servant?) To his lord he standeth, or falleth from him, [or To his lord he standeth, or falleth down]. But he shall stand; for the Lord is mighty to make him perfect, [or to ordain him, or make (him) steadfast].

6He that understandeth the day, understandeth to the Lord, [or He that savoureth the day, savoureth to the Lord]. And he that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he doeth thankings to God (or for he giveth thanks to God). And he that eateth not, eateth not to the Lord, and doeth thankings to God.
