Proverbs 30 (kjv)

The words^H1697 of Agur^H94 the son^H1121 of Jakeh^H3348, even the prophecy^H4853: the man^H1397 spake^H5002 unto Ithiel^H384, even unto Ithiel^H384 and Ucal^H401,²Surely I am more brutish^H1198 than any man^H376, and have not the understanding^H998 of a man^H120.³I neither learned^H3925 wisdom^H2451, nor have^H3045 the knowledge^H1847 of the holy^H6918.⁴Who hath ascended up^H5927 into heaven^H8064, or descended^H3381? who hath gathered^H622 the wind^H7307 in his fists^H2651? who hath bound^H6887 the waters^H4325 in a garment^H8071?who hath established^H6965 all the ends^H657 of the earth^H776? what is his name^H8034, and what is his son's^H1121 name^H8034, if thou canst tell^H3045?⁵Every word^H565 of God^H433 is pure^H6884: he is a shield^H4043 unto them that put their trust^H2620 in him.⁶Add^H3254 thou not unto his words^H1697, lest he reprove^H3198 thee, and thou be found a liar^H3576.

⁷Two^H8147 things have I required^H7592 of thee; deny^H4513 me them not before I die^H4191:⁸Remove far^H7368 from me vanity^H7723 and lies^{H1697 H3577}: give^H5414 me neither poverty^H7389 nor riches^H6239; feed^H2963 me with food^H3899 convenient^H2706 for me:⁹Lest I be full^H7646, and deny^H3584 thee, and say^H559, Who is the LORD^H3068? or lest I be poor^H3423, and steal^H1589, and take^H8610 the name^H8034 of my God^H430in vain.

¹⁰Accuse^H3960 not a servant^H5650 unto his master^H113, lest he curse^H7043 thee, and thou be found guilty^H816.

¹¹There is a generation^H1755 that curseth^H7043 their father^H1, and doth not bless^H1288 their mother^H517.¹²There is a generation^H1755 that are pure^H2889 in their own eyes^H5869, and yet is not washed^H7364 from their filthiness^H6675.¹³There is a generation^H1755, O how lofty^H7311 are their eyes^H5869! and their eyelids^H6079 are lifted up^H5375.¹⁴There 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^H776, and the needy^H34 from among men^H120.

¹⁵The horseleach^H5936 hath two^H8147 daughters^H1323, crying, Give^H3051, give^H3051. There are three^H7969 things that are never satisfied^H7646, yea, four^H702 things say^H559 not,It is enough^H1952:¹⁶The grave^H7585; and the barren^H6115 womb^H7356; the earth^H776 that is not filled^H7646 with water^H4325; and the fire^H784 that saith^H559 not, It is enough^H1952.¹⁷The 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^H1121eagles^H5404 shall eat^H398 it.¹⁸There be three^H7969 things which are too wonderful^H6381 for me, yea, four^H702 which I know^H3045 not:¹⁹The way^H1870 of an eagle^H5404 in the air^H8064; the way^H1870 of a serpent^H5175 upon 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^H1397with a maid^H5959.²⁰Such 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 wickedness^H205.²¹For three^H7969 things the earth^H776 is disquieted^H7264, and for four^H702 which it cannot^H3201 bear^H5375:²²For a servant^H5650 when he reigneth^H4427; and a fool^H5036 when he is filled^H7646 with meat^H3899;²³For an odious^H8130 woman when she is married^H1166; and an handmaid^H8198 that is heir^H3423 to her mistress^H1404.

²⁴There be four^H702 things which are little^H6996 upon the earth^H776, but they are exceeding^H2449 wise^H2450:²⁵The ants^H5244 are a people^H5971 not strong^H5794, yet they prepare^H3559 their meat^H3899 in the summer^H7019;²⁶The conies^H8227 are but a feeble^H6099 folk^H5971, yet make^H7760 they their houses^H1004 in the rocks^H5553;²⁷The locusts^H697 have no king^H4428, yet go they forth^H3318 all of them by bands^H2686;²⁸The spider^H8079 taketh hold^H8610 with her hands^H3027, and is in kings^H4428' palaces^H1964.

²⁹There be three^H7969 things which go^H6806 well^H3190, yea, four^H702 are comely^H2895 in going^H3212:³⁰A lion^H3918 which is strongest^H1368 among beasts^H929, and turneth not away^H7725 for^H6440 any;³¹A greyhound^{H4975 H2223}; an he goat^H8495 also^H176; and a king^H4428, against whom there is no rising up^H510.

³²If thou hast done foolishly^H5034 in lifting up^H5375 thyself, or if thou hast thought evil^H2161, lay thine hand^H3027 upon thy mouth^H6310.³³Surely 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 bringethforth^H3318 strife^H7379.
