6Do not add aught unto his words: lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
7Two things do I request of thee: deny them not to me before I die.
8Vanity and lying words do thou remove far from me: neither poverty nor riches give thou unto me; let me eat the bread appointed unto me:
9Lest I become over-full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or lest I become poor, and steal, and trespass against the name of my God.
10Do not calumniate a servant unto his master: lest he curse thee, and thou incur guilt.
11There is a generation that curseth its father, and doth not bless its mother.
