6
Add thou not to his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
7
Two [things] have I required of thee; deny [them] not to me before I die:
8
Remove far from me vanity and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:
9
Lest I be full, and deny [thee], and say, Who [is] the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God [in vain].
10
Accuse not a servant to his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty.
11
[There is] a generation [that] curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
12
[There is] a generation [that are] pure in their own eyes, and [yet] are not washed from their filthiness.
13
[There is] a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
14
[There is] a generation, whose teeth [are as] swords, and their jaw-teeth [as] knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from [among] men.
15
The horse-leech hath two daughters, [crying], Give, give. There are three [things that] are never satisfied, [yes], four [things] say not, [It is] enough:
16
The grave; and the barren womb; the earth [that] is not filled with water; and the fire [that] saith not, [It is] enough.
