Proverbs 30:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 Make me absolutely honest
and don't let me be too poor
or too rich.
Give me just what I need.
9 If I have too much to eat,
I might forget about you;
if I don't have enough,
I might steal
and disgrace your name.
10 Don't tell a slave owner
something bad about one
of the slaves.
That slave will curse you,
and you will be in trouble.

8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me;
give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.(A)

and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’(C)

and so dishonor the name of my God.(D)

or they will curse you, and you will pay for it.
