Proverbs 30:7-14

⁷Two things have I asked of thee; Deny me them not before I die:

⁸Remove far from me falsehood and lies; Give me neither poverty nor riches; Feed me with the food that is needful for me:

⁹Lest 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.

¹⁰Slander not a servant unto his master, Lest he curse thee, and thou be held guilty.

¹¹There is a generation that curse their father, And bless not their mother.

¹²There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, And yet are not washed from their filthiness.

¹³There is a generation, oh how lofty are their eyes! And their eyelids are lifted up.

¹⁴There is a generation whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, To devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
