3 I have not gained wisdom,and I have no knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has gathered the wind in His hands?Who has bound up the waters in a cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name,and what is the name of His Son —if you know?
5 Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.
6 Don’t add to His words, or He will rebuke you, and you will be proved a liar.
7 Two things I ask of You;don’t deny them to me before I die:
8 Keep falsehood and deceitful words far from me.Give me neither poverty nor wealth;feed me with the food I need.
9 Otherwise, I might have too much and deny You, saying, “Who is the Lord? ” or I might have nothing and steal, profaning the name of my God.
