And don’t make me either rich or poor;
just give me enough food for each day [Matt. 6:11; 1 Tim. 6:8].
9 If I ·have too much [am sated/satisfied], I might ·reject [deny] you

and ·disgrace [profane] the name of my God.

And that I will not become (D)impoverished and steal,
And (E)profane the name of my God.
