   In the two paths teaching of Barnabas is the injunction: Do not doubt
whether to give; and as you give, do not complain.  But recognize who is
the good paymaster of the reward (11:1a).  The last bit is GNWSHi DE, TIS
hO TOU MISQOU KALOS ANTAPODOTHS.  
   I don't really like the term "paymaster" (since it's not one I ever
use), but can't think of anything better.  I guess I could paraphrase:
"but recognize that the one who pays back the reward is good."  But
I don't much like that either.
   Anyone want to propose an option?
