Proverbs 30:8-9
Legacy Standard Bible
8 Keep worthlessness and every false word far from me,
Give me neither poverty nor riches;
Feed me with the (A)food that is my portion,
9 Lest I be (B)full and deny (C)You and say, “Who is Yahweh?”
Or lest I be (D)impoverished and steal,
And [a](E)profane the name of my God.

Proverbs 30:8-9
Common English Bible
8 Fraud and lies—
keep far from me!
Don’t give me either poverty or wealth;
give me just the food I need.
9 Or I’ll be full and deny you,
and say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or I’ll be poor and steal,
and dishonor my God’s name.
