Proverbs 30:5-14

5EveryH3605 wordH565 of GodH433 is triedH6884: he is a shieldH4043 unto them that trust in him.

6AddH3254 thou notH408 unto his wordsH1697, lestH6435 he reproveH3198 thee, and thou be found a liarH3576.

7TwoH8147 things have I askedH7592 of thee; denyH4513 meH4480 them notH408 beforeH2962 I dieH4191:

8RemoveH7368 farH7368 from meH5414 vanityH7723 and liesH3577: giveH5414 meH5414 neitherH408 povertyH7389 norH408 richesH6239; feedH2963 meH5414 with the foodH3899 that is needful for meH5414:

9LestH6435 I be fullH7646, and denyH3584 thee, and sayH559, Who is the LORDH3068? or lestH6435 I be poorH3423, and stealH1589, and use profanely the nameH8034 of my GodH430.

10SlanderH3960 notH408 a servantH5650 unto his masterH113, lestH6435 he curseH7043 thee, and thou be heldH816 guiltyH816.

11There is a generationH1755 that curseth their fatherH1, and doth notH3808 blessH1288 their motherH517.

12There is a generationH1755 that are pureH2889 in their ownH5869 eyesH5869; and yet are notH3808 washedH7364 from their filthinessH6675.

13There is a generationH1755, Oh howH4100 loftyH7311 are their eyesH5869! and their eyelidsH6079 are liftedH5375 upH5375.

14There is a generationH1755 whoseH120 teethH8127 are as swordsH2719, and their jawH4973 teethH8127 as knivesH2719, to devourH398 the poorH6041 from offH398 the earthH776, and the needyH34 from among menH120.
