| 7 | Two things I asked from thee, thou wilt not withhold from me before I shall die: | Two things I ask of you; deny them not to me before I die: | “Two things I ask of you, LORD; do not refuse me before I die: | |
| 8 | Vanity and the word of falsehood remove far from me; thou wilt not give to me poverty and riches; feed me with bread of my allowance: | Remove far from me falsehood and lying; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me, | Keep falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. | |
| 9 | Lest I shall be filled and I spake lies, and said, Who is Jehovah? and lest I shall be dispossessed and I stole, and I laid hold upon the name of God. | lest I be full and deny you and say, “Who is the LORD?” or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God. | Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, ‘Who is the LORD?’ Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God. | |
