American Standard Version

Proverbs 30:7-11 American Standard Version (ASV)

7. Two things have I asked of thee; Deny me them not before I die:

8. Remove far from me falsehood and lies; Give me neither poverty nor riches; Feed me with the food that is needful for me:

9. Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is Jehovah? Or lest I be poor, and steal, And use profanely the name of my God.

10. Slander not a servant unto his master, Lest he curse thee, and thou be held guilty.

11. There is a generation that curse their father, And bless not their mother.
