Two things I ask of you;
    do not deny them to me before I die:
Remove far from me falsehood and lying;
    give me neither poverty nor riches;
    feed me with the food that I need,
or I shall be full, and deny you,
    and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’
or I shall be poor, and steal,
    and profane the name of my God.

Or I may become poor and steal,
    and so dishonor the name of my God.(D)
