neglect

Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican. Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Matthew 18:15-18, KJV

Wipe the antimony of neglect from off thine eyes, for tomorrow wilt thou be reduced to antimony under the dust.

Saadi, Bustan

Be not disposed towards the market-place of oppression; Be not neglectful of the smoke of men's hearts. O man of haste! be not an oppressor of humanity, For of a sudden the wrath of God will overtake thee. Do not oppress the poor humble people, For without doubt the tyrant passeth to perdition.

Saadi, Scroll of Wisdom

So that in venturing ill we leave to be The things we are for that which we expect; And this ambitious foul infirmity, In having much, torments us with defect Of that we have: so then we do neglect The thing we have; and, all for want of wit, Make something nothing by augmenting it

Shakespeare, The Rape of Lucrece
