“Two things I have asked of you.
    Don’t deny me before I die.
Remove far from me falsehood and lies.
    Give me neither poverty nor riches.
    Feed me with the food that is needful for me,
lest I be full, deny you, and say, ‘Who is Yahweh?’
    or lest I be poor, and steal,
    and so dishonor the name of my God.

Or I may become poor and steal,
    and so dishonor the name of my God.(D)
