Proverbs 30:5-14

5Every word of 1God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

6Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

7Two things do I ask of thee; deny me [them] not before I die:

8Remove far from me vanity and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the bread of my daily need:

9lest I be full and deny [thee], and say, Who is Jehovah? or lest I be poor and steal, and outrage the name of my 2God.

10Speak not too much about a servant to his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be held guilty.

11There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother;

12there is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, yet are not washed from their filthiness;

13there is a generation, — how lofty are their eyes, how their eyelids are lifted up!

14— a generation whose teeth are swords, and their jaw-teeth knives, to devour the afflicted from off the earth, and the needy from [among] men.
