Proverbs 30 (NKJV)

¹ The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, his utterance. This man declared to Ithiel—to Ithiel and Ucal: ² And do not have the understanding of a man. ³ Nor have knowledge of the Holy One. ⁴ If you know? ⁵ He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. ⁶ Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar. ⁷ (Deprive me not before I die): ⁸ Feed me with the food allotted to me; ⁹ And profane the name of my God. ¹⁰ Lest he curse you, and you be found guilty. ¹¹ And does not bless its mother. ¹² Yet is not washed from its filthiness. ¹³ And their eyelids are lifted up. ¹⁴ And the needy from among men. ¹⁵ Four never say, “Enough!”: ¹⁶ And the fire never says, “Enough!” ¹⁷ And the young eagles will eat it. ¹⁸ Yes, four which I do not understand: ¹⁹ And the way of a man with a virgin. ²⁰ And says, “I have done no wickedness.” ²¹ Yes, for four it cannot bear up: ²² A fool when he is filled with food, ²³ And a maidservant who succeeds her mistress. ²⁴ But they are exceedingly wise: ²⁵ Yet they prepare their food in the summer; ²⁶ Yet they make their homes in the crags; ²⁷ Yet they all advance in ranks; ²⁸ And it is in kings’ palaces. ²⁹ Yes, four which are stately in walk: ³⁰ And does not turn away from any; ³¹ And a king whose troops are with him. ³² Or if you have devised evil, put your hand on your mouth. ³³ So the forcing of wrath produces strife.
