7 I ask you, God, to let me have two things before I die: 8 keep me from lying, and let me be neither rich nor poor. So give me only as much food as I need. 9 If I have more, I might say that I do not need you. But if I am poor, I might steal and bring disgrace on my God.

Proverbs 30:7-9
New International Version
7 “Two things I ask of you, Lord;
do not refuse me before I die:
8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me;
give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.(A)
9 Otherwise, I may have too much and disown(B) you
and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’(C)
Or I may become poor and steal,
and so dishonor the name of my God.(D)
