5. ਇਸ ਕਾਰਨ ਮੈਂ ਭਰਾਵਾਂ ਦੇ ਅੱਗੇ ਇਹ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕਰਨੀ ਉਚਿਤ ਸਮਝੀ ਜੋ ਓਹ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਕੋਲ ਜਾਣ ਅਤੇ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਉਸ ਦਾਨ ਨੂੰ ਜਿਹ ਦਾ ਅੱਗੋਂ ਹੀ ਤੁਸਾਂ ਬਚਨ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਹੋਇਆ ਹੈ ਅਗੇਤਾ ਹੀ ਤਿਆਰ ਕਰ ਰੱਖਣਾ ਭਈ ਉਹ ਖੁਲ੍ਹ ਦਿਲੀ ਦੇ ਦਾਨ ਵਰਗਾ ਤਿਆਰ ਰਹੇ ਨਾ ਬੱਧੋਗਿਰੀ ਦੇ ਦਾਨ ਵਰਗਾ।।

5. ਇਸਲਈ ਮੈਂ ਸੋਚਿਆ ਕਿ ਇਸਤੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਕਿ ਅਸੀਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਵੱਲ ਆਈਏ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਭਰਾਵਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਵੱਲ ਘੱਲਾਂ। ਉਹ ਤੋਹਫ਼ਾ ਤਿਆਰ ਕਰ ਸਕਣਗੇ ਜਿਸਦਾ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਵਾਅਦਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਸੀ। ਇਹ ਤੁਹਾਡਾ ਤੋਹਫ਼ਾ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ। ਫ਼ੇਰ ਜਦੋਂ ਅਸੀਂ ਆਵਾਂਗੇ ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਤੋਹਫ਼ਾ ਤਿਹਾਰ ਹੋਵਗਾ ਜਿਹਡ਼ਾ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਦੇਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਸੀ। ਫ਼ੇਰ ਇਹ ਤੋਹਫ਼ਾ ਇੱਕ ਸਵੈਂਇਛਿਤ ਤੋਹਫ਼ਾ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ ਨਾ ਕਿ ਅਣਇਛਿਤ।

5. ਇਸ ਕਾਰਨ ਮੈਂ ਭਰਾਵਾਂ ਦੇ ਅੱਗੇ ਇਹ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕਰਨੀ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਸਮਝੀ, ਜੋ ਉਹ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਕੋਲ ਜਾਣ ਅਤੇ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਉਸ ਦਾਨ ਨੂੰ ਜਿਸ ਦਾ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਹੀ ਬਚਨ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਹੋਇਆ ਹੈ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਹੀ ਤਿਆਰ ਕਰ ਰੱਖਣਾ ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਉਹ ਖੁੱਲ੍ਹੇ ਦਿਲ ਦੇ ਦਾਨ ਵਰਗਾ ਹੋਵੇ ਨਾ ਕਿ ਬੰਦਿਸ਼ ਦੇ ਦਾਨ ਵਰਗਾ।
