1The wordsH1697 of Agur the sonH1121 of Jakeh; the oracle.

The manH1397 saith unto IthielH384, unto IthielH384 and Ucal:2Surely I am more brutish than any manH376,And have not the understandingH998 of a manH376;3And I have not learnedH3925 wisdomH2451,Neither have I the knowledgeH1847 of the HolyH6918 OneH6918.4Who hath ascended up into heavenH8064, and descended?Who hath gatheredH622 the windH7307 in his fists?Who hath bound the watersH4325 in his garmentH8071?Who hath establishedH6965 all the endsH657 of the earthH776?What is his nameH8034, and what is his son’sH1121 nameH8034, if thou knowest?5Every wordH565 of GodH433 is tried:He is a shieldH4043 unto them that takeH2620 refugeH2620 in him.6AddH3254 thou not unto his wordsH1697,LestH6435 he reproveH3198 thee, and thou be found a liarH3576.7TwoH8147 things have I askedH7592 of thee;Deny methemnot before I dieH4191:8RemoveH7368 farH7368 from me falsehoodH7723 and liesH3577;GiveH5414 me neither povertyH7389 nor richesH6239;Feed me with the foodH3899 that is needful for me:9LestH6435 I be full, and denyH3584thee, and sayH559, Who is Jehovah?Or lestH6435 I be poor, and stealH1589,And use profanely the nameH8034 of my GodH430.
