Proverbs 30:1-9 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. The words of Ag̅ur son of Yaqeh, a message. This man declared to Ithi’ĕl, to Ithi’ĕl and Uḵal:

2. For I am more stupid than anyone, And do not have the understanding of a man.

3. And I have not learned wisdom That I should know the knowledge of the Set-apart One.

4. Who has gone up to the heavens and come down? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who established all the ends of the earth? What is His Name, And what is His Son’s Name, If you know it?

5. Every Word of Eloah is tried; He is a shield to those taking refuge in Him.

6. Do not add to His Words, Lest He reprove you, and you be found a liar.

7. Two matters I have asked of You – Deny them not to me before I die:

8. Remove falsehood and a lying word far from me; Give me neither poverty nor riches; Feed me my portion of bread;

9. Lest I become satisfied and deny You, And say, “Who is יהוה?” And lest I be poor, and steal, And seize the Name of my Elohim.
