Eilu Devarim

These are the duties whose worth cannot be measured:
Honoring one’s father and mother,
Acts of love and kindness,
Diligent pursuit of knowledge and wisdom,
Hospitality to strangers,
Visiting the sick,
Celebrating with bride and groom,
Consoling the bereaved,
Praying with sincerity,
Making peace where there is strife,
And the study of Torah leads to them all.
-Babylonian Talmud Shabbat 127a

Eilu devarim she'en lahem shiur - hape'ah, vhabikurim, vha'rayon, u'gemilus chasadim, v'talmud Torah. Eilu devarim sh'adam ochayl peirosayhem ba'olam hazeh v'hakeren kayemes lo l'olam haba, v'eilu hayn: kibbud av v'aym, u'gemilus chassadim, v'hashkamas bais hamidrash Shacharis v'Arvis, v'hachanassas orchim, u'bikur cholim, v'hachnasas kallah, u'levayas hames, v'iyun tefilla, v'havas shalom bayn adam l'chaveiro, v'talmud Torah keniged kulam.
