Proverbs 30:6-12

⁶Do not add to (OR, change) what God has said; if you do that, he will rebuke you and show that you are lying.

⁷God, I ask you to do two things for me; please do them before I die:

⁸Help me never to lie or deceive people and do not cause me to become poor or to become rich. Just give me the food that I need;

⁹because if I become rich, I might say that I do not RHQ know you and that I do not need you; and if I become poor, I might dishonor you by stealing things.

¹⁰Do not ◄slander/say bad things about► a worker to his boss; if you do that, the worker will curse you, and cause you to have trouble.

¹¹I will list four kinds of evil things that people do: Some people curse their fathers and do not ask God to bless their mothers.

¹²Some people think that they are perfect, but really they have never been cleansed from their guilt for committing disgusting sins.
