Proverbs 30:7 - The Message And then he prayed, “God, I’m asking for two things before I die; don’t refuse me— Banish lies from my lips and liars from my presence. Give me enough food to live on, neither too much nor too little. If I’m too full, I might get independent, saying, ‘God? Who needs him?’ If I’m poor, I might steal and dishonor the name of my God.” * * * More versionsKing James Version (Oxford) 1769 Two things have I required of thee; Deny me them not before I die: Amplified Bible - Classic Edition Two things have I asked of You [O Lord]; deny them not to me before I die: American Standard Version (1901) Two things have I asked of thee; Deny me them not before I die: Common English Bible Two things I ask of you; don’t keep them from me before I die: Catholic Public Domain Version Two things I have asked of you; do not deny them to me before I die.
