Thou shalt give better advice about cars than either brother; or thou shalt give better advice than the first brother to give advice; or Thou shalt get, at the very least, a third opinion to the generally conflicting advice the brothers, Click and Clack, aka, Tommy and Raymy, give on the show.

Uh, Thou shalt appreciate secular reminders when the Vatican offers them.
