Proverbs 30:7-9

30:7 Two things I ask from you;do not refuse me before I die:
(Thing 1:) 30:8 Remove falsehood and lies far from me;
(Thing 2:) do not give me poverty or riches, feed me with my allotted portion of bread,
(The reasons I want to avoid being extremely rich or extremely poor:)
(Reason 1:)30:9 lest I become satisfied and act deceptively and say, “Who is the Lord?”
(Reason 2:)Or lest I become poor and steal and demean the name of my God.

NET translation. How do you feel about money?
