Proverbs 30:8 in Context — Proverbs 30

6 Nada acrescentes às suas palavras, para que ele não te repreenda, e sejas mostrado como mentiroso.

7 Duas coisas eu te pedi; não [as] negues a mim antes que eu morra.

8 Afasta de mim a inutilidade e palavra mentirosa; [e] não me dês nem pobreza nem riqueza, mantém-me com o pão que me for necessário.

9 Para que não aconteça de eu ficar farto e [te] negar, dizendo: Quem é o SENHOR?Nem também que eu empobreça, e venha a furtar, e desonre o nome do meu Deus.

10 Não difames do servo ao seu senhor, para que ele não te amaldiçoe e fiques culpado.
