Proverbs 30:5-14

5EveryH3605 wordH565 of GodH433 is flawlessH6884; HeH1931 is a shieldH4043 to those who take refugeH2620 in Him.6Do notH408 addH3254 toH5921 His wordsH1697, lestH6435 He rebukeH3198 you and prove you a liarH3576.

7TwoH8147 things I askH7592H854 of YouH4480—do notH408 refuse meH4513 beforeH2962 I dieH4191:8Keep falsehoodH7723 and deceitfulH3577 wordsH1697 farH7368 from meH4480.GiveH5414 me neitherH408 povertyH7389 nor richesH6239;feed meH2963 with the breadH3899 that is my portionH2706.9OtherwiseH6435, I may have too muchH7646and deny YouH3584, sayingH559, ‘WhoH4310 is the LORDH3068?’OrH6435 I may become poorH3423 and stealH1589,profaningH8610 the nameH8034 of my GodH430.
10Do notH408 slanderH3960 a servantH5650 toH413 his masterH113,orH6435 he will curse youH7043, and you will bear the guiltH816.
11There is a generationH1755 of those who curseH7043 their fathersH1and do notH3808 blessH1288 their mothersH517.12There is a generationH1755 of those who are pureH2889 in their own eyesH5869and yet unwashedH3808H7364 of their filthH6675.13There is a generationH1755—howH4100 haughtyH7311 are their eyesH5869and pretentiousH5375 are their glancesH6079—14there is a generationH1755 whose teethH8127 are swordsH2719and whose jawsH4973 are knivesH3979,devouringH398 the oppressedH6041 from the earthH776and the needyH34 from among menH120.
