Proverbs 30:2-10

English Standard Version

²Surely I am too ^(A)stupid to be a man.
    I have not the understanding of a man.
³I have not learned wisdom,
    nor have I knowledge of ^(B)the Holy One.
⁴Who has ^(C)ascended to heaven and come down?
    Who has ^(D)gathered the wind in his fists?
Who has ^(E)wrapped up the waters in a garment?
    Who has established all ^(F)the ends of the earth?
^(G)What is his name, and what is his son's name?
    Surely you know!

⁵^(H)Every word of God proves true;
he is ^(I)a shield to those who take refuge in him.
⁶^(J)Do not add to his words,
lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.

⁷Two things I ask of you;
    deny them not to me ^(K)before I die:
⁸Remove far from me falsehood and lying;
    give me neither poverty nor riches;
    feed me with the food that is ^(L)needful for me,
⁹lest I be ^(M)full and ^(N)deny you
    and say, ^(O)“Who is the Lord?”
or lest I be poor and steal
    ^(P)and profane the name of my God.
