A Prayer for Preservation alike from Wealth and Poverty

7 For two things I entreat you;

deny me not, before I die.

8 Put falseness and lying away from me;

give me neither riches nor poverty,

grant me the food I need;

9 lest, if surfeited, I deny you,

and say, ‘Who then is the Lord?’

Or poverty drive me to steal,

and profane the name of my God.
