Question 112

Q. What is required in the ninth commandment?
A.
That I bear false witness against no man,

nor falsify any man’s words;

that I be no backbiter, nor slanderer;

that I do not judge, nor join in condemning any man rashly or unheard;

but that I avoid all sorts of lies and deceit as the proper works of the devil,

unless I would bring down upon me the heavy wrath of God;

likewise, that in judgment and all other dealings I love the truth,

speak it uprightly,

and confess it;

also that I defend and promote,

as much as I am able,

the honor and good character of my neighbor.
