7 Dos cosas te he demandado; no me [las] niegues antes que muera.
8 Vanidad y palabra mentirosa aparta de mí. No me des pobreza ni riquezas; manténme del pan que he menester;
9 No sea que me harte, y [te] niegue, y diga, ¿Quién es Jehová? ó no sea que siendo pobre, hurte, y blasfeme el nombre de mi Dios.
10 No acuses al siervo ante su señor, porque no te maldiga, y peques.
11 Hay generación que maldice á su padre, y á su madre no bendice.
