8Put far from me all false and foolish things: do not give me great wealth or let me be in need, but give me only enough food:
9For fear that if I am full, I may be false to you and say, Who is the Lord? or if I am poor, I may become a thief, using the name of my God wrongly.
10Do not say evil of a servant to his master, or he will put a curse on you, and you will get into trouble.
11There is a generation who put a curse on their father, and do not give a blessing to their mother.
12There is a generation who seem to themselves to be free from sin, but are not washed from their unclean ways.
13There is a generation, O how full of pride are their eyes! O how their brows are lifted up!
14There is a generation whose teeth are like swords, their strong teeth like knives, for the destruction of the poor from the earth, and of those who are in need from among men.
