The Words of Agur

30The words of Agur son of Jakeh. The oracle. The man's oration to Ithiel, to Ithiel and Ucal:H1697H94H1121H3348H4853H1397H5002H384H384H401
2I am the least intelligent of men, and I lack man's ability to understand.H1198H376H998H120
3I have not gained wisdom, and I have no knowledge of the Holy One.H3925H2451H3045H1847H6918
4Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has gathered the wind in His hands? Who has bound up the waters in a cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is the name of His Son— if you know?H5927H8064H3381H622H7307H2651H6887H4325H8071H6965H657H776H8034H1121H8034H3045
5Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.H565H433H6884H4043H2620
6Don't add to His words, or He will rebuke you, and you will be proved a liar.H3254H1697H3198H3576
7Two things I ask of You; don't deny them to me before I die:H8147H7592H4513H4191
8Keep falsehood and deceitful words far from me. Give me neither poverty nor wealth; feed me with the food I need.H7368H7723H1697H3577H5414H7389H6239H2963H3899H2706
9Otherwise, I might have too much and deny You, saying, "Who is the LORD?" or I might have nothing and steal, profaning the name of my God.H7646H3584H559H3068H3423H1589H8610H8034H430
10Don't slander a servant to his master, or he will curse you, and you will become guilty.H3960H5650H113H7043H816
11There is a generation that curses its father and does not bless its mother.H1755H7043H1H1288H517
12There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes, yet is not washed from its filth.H1755H2889H5869H7364H6675
13There is a generation— how haughty its eyes and pretentious its looks.H1755H7311H5869H6079H5375
14There is a generation whose teeth are swords, whose fangs are knives, devouring the oppressed from the land and the needy from among mankind.H1755H8127H2719H4973H3979H398H6041H776H34H120
15The leech has two daughters: Give, Give. Three things are never satisfied; four never say, "Enough!":H5936H8147H1323H3051H3051H7969H7646H702H559H1952
16Sheol; a barren womb; earth, which is never satisfied with water; and fire, which never says, "Enough!"H7585H6115H7356H776H7646H4325H784H559H1952
17As for the eye that ridicules a father and despises obedience to a mother, may ravens of the valley pluck it out and young vultures eat it.H5869H3932H1H936H3349H517H6158H5158H5365H1121H5404H398
18Three things are beyond me; four I can't understand:H7969H6381H702H3045
19the way of an eagle in the sky, the way of a snake on a rock, the way of a ship at sea, and the way of a man with a young woman.H1870H5404H8064H1870H5175H6697H1870H591H3820H3220H1870H1397H5959
20This is the way of an adulteress: she eats and wipes her mouth and says, "I've done nothing wrong."H1870H5003H802H398H4229H6310H559H6466H205
21The earth trembles under three things; it cannot bear up under four:H7969H776H7264H702H3201H5375
22a servant when he becomes king, a fool when he is stuffed with food,H5650H4427H5036H7646H3899
23an unloved woman when she marries, and a serving girl when she ousts her lady.H8130H1166H8198H3423H1404
24Four things on earth are small, yet they are extremely wise:H702H6996H776H2449H2450
25the ants are not a strong people, yet they store up their food in the summer;H5244H5971H5794H3559H3899H7019
26hyraxes are not a mighty people, yet they make their homes in the cliffs;H8227H6099H5971H7760H1004H5553
27locusts have no king, yet all of them march in ranks;H697H4428H3318H2686
28a lizard can be caught in your hands, yet it lives in kings' palaces.H8079H8610H3027H4428H1964
29Three things are stately in their stride, even four are stately in their walk:H7969H6806H3190H702H2895H3212
30a lion, which is mightiest among beasts and doesn't retreat before anything,H3918H1368H929H7725H6440
31a strutting rooster, a goat, and a king at the head of his army.H4975H2223H8495H176H4428H510
32If you have been foolish by exalting yourself, or if you've been scheming, put your hand over your mouth.H5034H5375H2161H3027H6310
33For the churning of milk produces butter, and twisting a nose draws blood, and stirring up anger produces strife.H4330H2461H3318H2529H4330H639H3318H1818H4330H639H3318H7379
