7 Two things I request of You
(Deprive me not before I die):
8 Remove falsehood and lies far from me;
Give me neither poverty nor riches—
(A)Feed me with the food allotted to me;
9 (B)Lest I be full and deny You,
And say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or lest I be poor and steal,
And profane the name of my God.

Deny me them not before I die:
8 Remove far from me falsehood and lies;
Give me neither poverty nor riches;
Feed me with [a]the food that is needful for me:
9 Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is Jehovah?
Or lest I be poor, and steal,
And [b]use profanely the name of my God.
