1 The words of Agur, son of Jakeh. Agur's prophetic revelation.+b This man's declaration: |I'm weary, O God. I'm weary and worn out, O God.

2 I'm more [like] a dumb animal than a human being. I don't [even] have human understanding.

3 I haven't learned wisdom. I don't have knowledge of the Holy One.

4 |Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has gathered the wind in the palm of his hand? Who has wrapped water in a garment? Who has set up the earth from one end to the other? What is his name or the name of his son? Certainly, you must know!

5 |Every word of God has proven to be true. He is a shield to those who come to him for protection.

6 Do not add to his words, or he will reprimand you, and you will be found to be a liar.
