Verse 13 is found in chapter 30 of Proverbs. Agur offers a brief and deeply balanced prayer: he asks God to keep falsehood and lies far from him and to give him neither poverty nor riches. The goal is to receive the necessary food so that he will neither deny God from abundance nor steal from need. He then condemns generations that despise their parents, consider themselves pure, and consume the poor. Material and moral humility appear as one virtue.
