1 The words H1697 of Agur H94 the son H1121 of Jakeh, H3348 even the prophecy: H4853 the man H1397 spoke H5002 unto Ithiel, H384 even unto Ithiel H384 and Ucal, H401
2 Surely H3588 I H595 am more brutish H1198 than any man H4480 H376 , and have not H3808 the understanding H998 of a man. H120
3 I neither H3808 learned H3925 wisdom, H2451 nor have H3045 the knowledge H1847 of the holy. H6918
4 Who H4310 hath ascended up H5927 into heaven, H8064 or descended H3381 ? who H4310 hath gathered H622 the wind H7307 in his fists H2651 ? who H4310 hath bound H6887 the waters H4325 in a garment H8071 ? who H4310 hath established H6965 all H3605 the ends H657 of the earth H776 ? what H4100 is his name, H8034 and what H4100 is his son's H1121 name, H8034 if H3588 if thou canst tell H3045 ?
5 Every H3605 word H565 of God H433 is pure: H6884 he H1931 is a shield H4043 unto them that put their trust H2620 in him.
6 Add H3254 thou not H408 unto H5921 his words, H1697 lest H6435 he reprove H3198 thee , and thou be found a liar. H3576
7 Two H8147 things have I required H7592 of H4480 H854 thee; deny H4513 H4480 me them not H408 before H2962 I die: H4191
8 Remove far H7368 from H4480 me vanity H7723 and lies H1697 H3577 : give H5414 me neither H408 poverty H7389 nor riches; H6239 feed H2963 me with food H3899 convenient H2706 for me:
9 Lest H6435 I be full, H7646 and deny H3584 thee , and say, H559 Who H4310 is the LORD H3068 ? or lest H6435 I be poor, H3423 and steal, H1589 and take H8610 the name H8034 of my God H430 in vain .
10 Accuse H3960 not H408 a servant H5650 unto H413 his master, H113 lest H6435 he curse H7043 thee , and thou be found guilty. H816
11 There is a generation H1755 that curseth H7043 their father, H1 and doth not H3808 bless H1288 their mother. H517
12 There is a generation H1755 that are pure H2889 in their own eyes, H5869 and yet is not H3808 washed H7364 from their filthiness H4480 H6675 .
13 There is a generation, H1755 O how H4100 lofty H7311 are their eyes H5869 ! and their eyelids H6079 are lifted up. H5375
14 There is a generation, H1755 whose teeth H8127 are as swords, H2719 and their jaw teeth H4973 as knives, H3979 to devour H398 the poor H6041 from off the earth H4480 H776 , and the needy H34 from among men H4480 H120 .
15 The horseleach H5936 hath two H8147 daughters, H1323 crying , Give, H3051 give. H3051 There are three H7969 H2007 things that are never H3808 satisfied, H7646 yea , four H702 things say H559 not, H3808 It is enough: H1952
16 The grave; H7585 and the barren H6115 womb; H7356 the earth H776 that is not H3808 filled H7646 with water; H4325 and the fire H784 that saith H559 not, H3808 It is enough. H1952
17 The eye H5869 that mocketh H3932 at his father, H1 and despiseth H936 to obey H3349 his mother, H517 the ravens H6158 of the valley H5158 shall pick it out, H5365 and the young H1121 eagles H5404 shall eat H398 it.
18 There be three H7969 things which are too wonderful H6381 for H4480 me, yea, four H702 which I know H3045 not: H3808
19 The way H1870 of an eagle H5404 in the air; H8064 the way H1870 of a serpent H5175 upon H5921 a rock; H6697 the way H1870 of a ship H591 in the midst H3820 of the sea; H3220 and the way H1870 of a man H1397 with a maid. H5959
20 Such H3651 is the way H1870 of an adulterous H5003 woman; H802 she eateth, H398 and wipeth H4229 her mouth, H6310 and saith, H559 I have done H6466 no H3808 wickedness. H205
21 For H8478 three H7969 things the earth H776 is disquieted, H7264 and for H8478 four H702 which it cannot H3808 H3201 bear: H5375
22 For H8478 a servant H5650 when H3588 he reigneth; H4427 and a fool H5036 when H3588 he is filled H7646 with meat; H3899
23 For H8478 an odious H8130 woman when H3588 she is married; H1166 and a handmaid H8198 that H3588 is heir H3423 to her mistress. H1404
24 There be four H702 things which are little H6996 upon the earth, H776 but they H1992 are exceeding wise H2449 H2450 :
25 The ants H5244 are a people H5971 not H3808 strong, H5794 yet they prepare H3559 their meat H3899 in the summer; H7019
26 The conies H8227 are but a feeble H3808 H6099 folk, H5971 yet make H7760 they their houses H1004 in the rocks; H5553
27 The locusts H697 have no H369 king, H4428 yet go they forth H3318 all H3605 of them by bands; H2686
28 The spider H8079 taketh hold H8610 with her hands, H3027 and is in kings' H4428 palaces. H1964
29 There be three H7969 things which go H6806 well, H3190 yea, four H702 are comely H3190 in going: H1980
30 A lion H3918 which is strongest H1368 among beasts, H929 and turneth not away H3808 H7725 for H4480 H6440 any; H3605
31 A greyhound H2223 H4975 ; a he goat H8495 also; H176 and a king, H4428 against H5973 whom there is no H408 rising up. H6965
32 If H518 thou hast done foolishly H5034 in lifting up thyself, H5375 or if H518 thou hast thought evil, H2161 lay thine hand H3027 upon thy mouth. H6310
33 Surely H3588 the churning H4330 of milk H2461 bringeth forth H3318 butter, H2529 and the wringing H4330 of the nose H639 bringeth forth H3318 blood: H1818 so the forcing H4330 of wrath H639 bringeth forth H3318 strife. H7379
