9 ^aLest I be full and deny You,
And say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or lest I be poor and steal,
And profane the name of my God. ‡

10 Do not malign a servant to his master,
Lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.

12 There is a generation ^athat is pure in its own eyes,
Yet is not washed from its filthiness. ‡

13 There is a generation—oh, how ^alofty are their eyes!
And their eyelids are¹ lifted up. ‡
