give me neither poverty nor riches;
feed me with the food that is (B)needful for me,

and say, (E)“Who is the Lord?”
or lest I be poor and steal
(F)and profane the name of my God.

don’t keep them from me before I die:
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.
