12. ਅਸੀਂ ਫੇਰ ਆਪਣੀ ਸੋਭਾ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਅੱਗੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਦੇ ਸਗੋਂ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਸਾਡੇ ਵਿੱਖੇ ਅਭਮਾਨ ਕਰਨ ਦਾ ਵੇਲਾ ਦਿੰਦਾ ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉੱਤਰ ਦੇ ਸੱਕੋ ਜਿਹੜੇ ਵਿਖਾਵੇ ਤੇ ਅਭਮਾਨ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਨ ਅਤੇ ਹਿਰਦੇ ਤੋਂ ਨਹੀਂ

ERVPA
12. ਅਸੀਂ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਆਪ ਦਾ ਮੁਡ਼ਕੇ ਪ੍ਰਮਾਣ ਦੇਣ ਦੀ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਰਹੇ। ਪਰ ਅਸੀਂ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਬਾਰੇ ਦੱਸ ਰਹੇ ਹਾਂ। ਅਸੀਂ ਕਾਰਣ ਦੇ ਰਹੇ ਹਾਂ ਜਿਸ ਵਾਸਤੇ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਸਾਡੇ ਉੱਤੇ ਮਾਣ ਕਰ ਸਕਦੇ ਹੋ। ਫ਼ੇਰ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਕਲ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲਈ ਉੱਤਰ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ ਜਿਹਡ਼ੇ ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟਮਾਨ ਚੀਜ਼ਾਂ ਉੱਤੇ ਮਾਣ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਨ। ਉਹ ਲੋਕ ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਦੀ ਪ੍ਰਵਾਹ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਦੇ ਕਿ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਦੇ ਦਿਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਕੀ ਹੈ।
