Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need.

尤須寧靜澹泊、安分守己、躬自操作、悉如吾訓。務使外界睹爾品格高尚、行為端正、而無求於人也。

亦欲吾人努力為善、富於美德、慷慨為懷、博施濟眾而已矣。

是故吾人亟應隨機為有益於人之事、而尤以扶助同道中人、為當務之急也。

今聞爾中有行無紀律、不務正業、舍己耘人者；茲吾儕憑主耶穌基督、勸誡若輩、安分守己、自謀生計、以糊其口。

耶穌舉目、望見富人有獻於庫、復睹一貧嫠、投入二錢、乃曰：『予實語爾、此貧嫠所納者、實視彼眾為多；蓋彼眾出其所餘、聊以為貢、而此婦則於不足中、而傾輸其生活之資矣。』

眾問曰：『然則如之何而可？』對曰：『有二衣者、當與無衣者共之；有食者亦然。』稅吏至、欲受洗、曰：『夫子、吾當何為？』曰『無索分外。』軍士亦問曰：『吾儕如何？』曰：『毋凌人！毋誣人！安於餉。』

吾儕以吾主耶穌基督名義、囑我兄弟、遠離寡廉鮮恥、不守吾人規範之兄弟。蓋爾等固知應如何以吾儕為法也。吾儕昔在爾中、日用之間、未嘗不規行矩步、亦未嘗仰給於人、惟日夜躬自操作、以免加累於爾。

惟所貴在心、但望各人隨量樂助、勿取過其量也。

我與從者所需、悉憑此兩手以供之；此乃爾所應知也。吾以身作則、吾人皆宜親自操作、以濟貧弱；主耶穌嘗曰：「施惠之福、大於受惠；」爾曹其恆念斯言。

作盜賊、貪污、沉湎、謗人、勒索之徒、未有能承受天主之國者也。爾中以前亦有屬此類者、今則已賴吾主耶穌基督之名及天主聖神之恩、而洗滌夙穢且受聖而復義矣。

夙夜祈禱、持之以恆。供應聖徒、款待賓旅。

然彼作斯言非在恤貧、蓋其貪污成性、掌囊而恆竊所貯耳。

或以為茹答斯既司公橐、意者耶穌囑其購辦節日所需之物、或囑其斥貲濟貧耳。

石開恭立而白主曰：『主、願以家貲之半、施濟貧人、如有詐取於人者、願四倍以償。』

彼等雖艱苦備嘗、而神樂恆湧於心中；貧窮至極、而熱情獨異乎尋常；

是則此項善舉不僅補聖徒之不足、抑且使眾心感謝天主、於以增益天主之光榮。申言之、若輩既見爾等慈善之明徵、必因爾等之服膺聖道及急公好義、而翕然歸榮於天主矣。同時若輩鑒於爾等之滿被聖寵、嚮往之念、必油然而發、且將為爾祈禱矣。於此天主之福澤、實有不可思議者焉。吾人可不心歌而腹詠乎哉！

宜結美果、用副悛悔之心。莫道有亞伯漢為我大父！蓋吾語爾、天主固能化此頑石為亞伯漢之後裔也。
