What doth God require in the sixth command?

That neither in thoughts, nor words, nor gestures, much less in deeds, I dishonour, hate, wound or kill my neighbour, by myself or by another;^a but that I lay aside all desire of revenge:^b also, that I hurt not myself, nor wilfully expose myself to any danger:^c wherefore also the magistrate is armed with the sword, to prevent murder.^d
