Proverbs 30:8

A Prayer

⁷ Two things have I asked of thee; Deny me them not before I die: ⁸ Remove far from me falsehood and lies; Give me neither poverty nor riches; Feed me with the food that is needful for me: ⁹ Lest I be full, and deny thee , and say, Who is Jehovah? Or lest I be poor, and steal, And use profanely the name of my God.
