Translation: You should become a pious child
Diligently learn good things on Earth
Take Jesus as your ideal
Always conform to his teachings
So that you shall fare well on earth
Commend yourself to God's Majesty
Honor your parents joyfully
Learn fidelity, industry and truthfulness
Listen faithfully for God's word
Always believe it.
Such a way of living may teach you
to flee in time the sinful things
Stay with truth in simplicity
Read what I write down for you here.
