The laws of your ancestors, to be accepted by them in the afterlife and exist alongside them in their ancient home after death are these:
Lie with none outside of the bonds of marriage, that your youth may be profitable, and that you may scatter not the family and breed no quarrels with those around you.
Slay no kin, the ancestors accept none who do so, as your family is sacred and your death is theirs, so is their death at your hand eternal departure from the family, one who slays kin is no longer kin, and may be slain.
Bear fruit, do not let the family die with you, the ancestors do not welcome those who had the opportunity to produce a new generation and let that chance die with them, multiply and make great the family, let all arrows leave your quiver to good places that new archers may send them further.
Wed wisely, do not invite dissension into the family, do not wed one who will draw you away from the beliefs of your ancestors, do not wed one who will raise your children to mock the beliefs of your ancestors, do not bind your family name to reprobates, murderers, adulterers, the wicked, the ancestors will be avenged against one who does this.
Live uprightly, bring no shame to the name of your family and pay dues generously when they are owed. Do not let your family be known as misers or spendthrifts, do not let the word of the family be a cheap string, untrusted for it is thought to be broken easily.
Speak of your family with respect, do not make a mockery of each other in the eyes of others. Do not provoke quarrels within the family and thus divide it. Do not let anger lead to kinslaying, the ancestors will be avenged on those who spread violence within the clan.
Honor the ancestors. Your life is the result of the work of others, spend it wisely and respect those you owe it to.
Raise your children to honor the laws of your ancestors, the ancestors will be avenged on one who does not do this.
Respect the messages of the ancestors, they do not speak without purpose, they do not speak lightly, treat their commands with due honor.
