Please keep me away from the evil one and give me my daily bread

Proverbs 30:1-33
Two things I ask of you, O Lord; do not refuse me before I die:1) Keep falsehood and lies far from me; 2)give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, 'Who is the Lord?'
There are those four kinds of evil men, 1) curse their parent 2) they are pure in their eyes and yet are not cleansed of their filth; 3) their eyes are ever so haughty, whose glances are so disdainful; 4) Whose teeth are swords and whose jaws are set with knives to devour the poor from the earth, the needy from among mankind.
If you have played the fool and exalted yourself, or if you have planned evil, clap your hand over your mouth! For as churning the milk produces butter, and as twisting the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife. Have evil heart may speak out and become action, then it will become habit, and become his character.
Agur is a man whose close observation of life and nature have taught him humility
Why?
These two prayer are realistic matter to a man. To be an honest man before man and the Lord and have daily bread, do not afraid the living needed.
Four kinds wicked men, I think I met two of it, which is my boss in US, he has haughty eyes and his teeth are swords and his jaws are set with knives to devour the needy men.
The eyes that mocks his father, scorn obedience to a mother will be pecked out by the ravens of the valley...(v.17) repay to the first wicked man.
How?
I realized the wicked man in these world, I like to pray to the Lord, keep me away from the evil one and give me the daily bread.
