1. The sayings of Agur son of Jakeh contain this message.I am weary, O God;I am weary and worn out, O God.
2. I am too stupid to be human,and I lack common sense.
3. I have not mastered human wisdom,nor do I know the Holy One.
4. Who but God goes up to heaven and comes back down?Who holds the wind in his fists?Who wraps up the oceans in his cloak?Who has created the whole wide world?What is his name—and his son’s name?Tell me if you know!
5. Every word of God proves true.He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.
6. Do not add to his words,or he may rebuke you and expose you as a liar.
