## Proverbs 30:7-9 in Context (Verses 4–12 KJV)
 
 [4 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/4) Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what *is* his name, and what *is* his son’s name, if thou canst tell?
 
 [5 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/5) Every word of God *is* pure: he *is* a shield unto them that put their trust in him.*
 
 [6 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/6) Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/7) Two *things* have I required of thee; deny me *them* not before I die:*
 
 [8 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/8) Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:*
 
 [9 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/9) Lest I be full, and deny *thee*, and say, Who *is* the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God *in vain*.*
 
 [10 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/10) Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty.*
 
 [11 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/11) *There is* a generation *that* curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/proverbs/30/12) *There is* a generation *that are* pure in their own eyes, and *yet* is not washed from their filthiness.
