Proverbs 30:1-33 KJ21

[1] The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the prophecy: the man spoke unto Ithiel, even unto Ithiel and Ucal: [2] Surely I am more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man. [3] I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy. [4] Who hath ascended up into heaven or hath descended? Who hath gathered the wind in His fists? Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son's name, if thou canst tell? [5] Every word of God is pure; He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him. [6] Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee and thou be found a liar. [7] Two things have I required of Thee; deny me them not before I die: [8] Remove far from me vanity and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me only food sufficient for me, [9] lest I be full, and deny Thee, and say, "Who is the LORD?"- or lest I be poor and steal, and take the name of my God in vain. [10] Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee and thou be found guilty. [11] There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother. [12] There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness. [13] There is a generation - O how lofty are their eyes, and their eyelids are lifted up! [14] There is a generation whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men. [15] The horseleech hath two daughters, crying, "Give, give!" There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things that say not, "It is enough": [16] the grave, the barren womb, the earth that is not filled with water, and the fire that saith not, "It is enough." [17] The eye that mocketh at his father and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it. [18] There are three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I know not: [19] the way of an eagle in the air, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid. [20] Such is the way of an adulterous woman: she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, "I have done no wickedness." [21] For three things the earth is disquieted, and for four which it cannot bear: [22] for a servant when he reigneth, and a fool when he is filled with meat, [23] for an odious woman when she is married, and a handmaid who is heir to her mistress. [24] There are four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise: [25] the ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer; [26] the conies are but a feeble folk, yet they make their houses in the rocks; [27] the locusts have no king, yet they go forth, all of them in ranks; [28] the spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces. [29] There are three things which go well, yea, four which are comely in their goings: [30] a lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any; [31] a greyhound, a hegoat also, and a king against whom there is no rising up. [32] If thou hast done foolishly in exalting thyself, or if thou hast thought evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth. [33] Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood: so the stirring of wrath bringeth forth strife.
