亚古珥的箴言
30 以下是雅基的儿子亚古珥的箴言。
这人说：上帝啊，我很疲倦；
上帝啊，我很疲倦，精疲力尽。[a]
2 我比众人都愚蠢，
不具备人的悟性。
3 我从未学到智慧，
也不认识至圣者。
4 谁升上高天又降下来？
谁将风聚在掌中？
谁将众水裹在衣服里？
谁定了地的边界？
祂叫什么名字？
祂儿子叫什么名字？
你知道吗？
5 上帝的话句句千真万确，
祂作投靠祂之人的盾牌。
6 你不可对祂的话有所添加，
免得祂责备你，
揭穿你的虚谎。
7 上帝啊，我向你求两件事，
求你在我未死以前赐给我。
8 求你使虚伪和谎言远离我，
求你让我不贫穷也不富足，
赐给我需用的饮食，
9 免得我因为饱足就不认你，
说：“耶和华是谁呢？”
又恐怕我因穷困而偷窃，
以致辱没我上帝的名。
10 别向主人毁谤他的仆人，
免得你受咒诅、担当罪责。
11 有一种[b]人咒诅父亲，
不为母亲祝福。
12 有一种人自以为纯洁，
却没有洗掉自己的污秽。
13 有一种人趾高气扬，
目空一切。
14 有一种人牙如剑，
齿如刀，
要吞吃世间的困苦人和贫穷人。
15 水蛭有两个女儿，
她们不停地叫：“给我！给我！”
三样东西从不知足，
永不言“够”的共有四样：
16 阴间、不孕的妇人、
干旱的土地和火焰。
17 嘲笑父亲、藐视母亲教诲的，
眼睛必被谷中的乌鸦啄出，
被秃鹰吃掉。
18 我测不透的妙事有三样，
我不明白的事共有四样：
19 鹰在空中飞翔之道，
蛇在石上爬行之道，
船在海中航行之道，
男女相爱之道。
20 淫妇的道是这样：
她吃完就擦擦嘴，
说，“我没有做坏事。”
21 使大地震动的事有三样，
大地无法承受的事共有四样：
22 奴仆做王，
愚人吃饱，
23 丑恶女子出嫁，
婢女取代主母。
24 地上有四种动物，
身体虽小却极其聪明：
25 蚂蚁力量虽小，
却在夏天储备粮食；
26 石獾虽不强壮，
却在岩石中筑巢穴；
27 蝗虫虽无君王，
却整齐地列队前进；
28 壁虎虽易捕捉，
却居住在王宫大内。
29 步履威武的有三样，
走路雄壮的共有四样：
30 威震百兽、从不畏缩的狮子，
31 昂首阔步的雄鸡，
公山羊和率领军队的君王。
32 你若行事愚昧、
妄自尊大或图谋不轨，
就当用手掩口。
33 激起愤怒会引起争端，
正如搅牛奶会搅出奶油，
拧鼻子会拧出血。

Sayings of Agur
30 The sayings(A) of Agur son of Jakeh—an inspired utterance.
This man’s utterance to Ithiel:
“I am weary, God,
but I can prevail.[a]
2 Surely I am only a brute, not a man;
I do not have human understanding.
3 I have not learned wisdom,
nor have I attained to the knowledge of the Holy One.(B)
4 Who has gone up(C) to heaven and come down?
Whose hands(D) have gathered up the wind?
Who has wrapped up the waters(E) in a cloak?(F)
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is his name,(G) and what is the name of his son?
Surely you know!
5 “Every word of God is flawless;(H)
he is a shield(I) to those who take refuge in him.
6 Do not add(J) to his words,
or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.
7 “Two things I ask of you, Lord;
do not refuse me before I die:
8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me;
give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.(K)
9 Otherwise, I may have too much and disown(L) you
and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’(M)
Or I may become poor and steal,
and so dishonor the name of my God.(N)
10 “Do not slander a servant to their master,
or they will curse you, and you will pay for it.
11 “There are those who curse their fathers
and do not bless their mothers;(O)
12 those who are pure in their own eyes(P)
and yet are not cleansed of their filth;(Q)
13 those whose eyes are ever so haughty,(R)
whose glances are so disdainful;
14 those whose teeth(S) are swords
and whose jaws are set with knives(T)
to devour(U) the poor(V) from the earth
and the needy from among mankind.(W)
15 “The leech has two daughters.
‘Give! Give!’ they cry.
“There are three things that are never satisfied,(X)
four that never say, ‘Enough!’:
16 the grave,(Y) the barren womb,
land, which is never satisfied with water,
and fire, which never says, ‘Enough!’
17 “The eye that mocks(Z) a father,
that scorns an aged mother,
will be pecked out by the ravens of the valley,
will be eaten by the vultures.(AA)
18 “There are three things that are too amazing for me,
four that I do not understand:
19 the way of an eagle in the sky,
the way of a snake on a rock,
the way of a ship on the high seas,
and the way of a man with a young woman.
20 “This is the way of an adulterous woman:
She eats and wipes her mouth
and says, ‘I’ve done nothing wrong.’(AB)
21 “Under three things the earth trembles,
under four it cannot bear up:
22 a servant who becomes king,(AC)
a godless fool who gets plenty to eat,
23 a contemptible woman who gets married,
and a servant who displaces her mistress.
24 “Four things on earth are small,
yet they are extremely wise:
25 Ants are creatures of little strength,
yet they store up their food in the summer;(AD)
26 hyraxes(AE) are creatures of little power,
yet they make their home in the crags;
27 locusts(AF) have no king,
yet they advance together in ranks;
28 a lizard can be caught with the hand,
yet it is found in kings’ palaces.
29 “There are three things that are stately in their stride,
four that move with stately bearing:
30 a lion, mighty among beasts,
who retreats before nothing;
31 a strutting rooster, a he-goat,
and a king secure against revolt.[b]
32 “If you play the fool and exalt yourself,
or if you plan evil,
clap your hand over your mouth!(AG)
33 For as churning cream produces butter,
and as twisting the nose produces blood,
so stirring up anger produces strife.”

The Wisdom of Agur
30 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, his utterance. This man declared to Ithiel—to Ithiel and Ucal:
2 (A)Surely I am more stupid than any man,
And do not have the understanding of a man.
3 I neither learned wisdom
Nor have (B)knowledge of the Holy One.
4 (C)Who has ascended into heaven, or descended?
(D)Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has bound the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name, and what is His Son’s name,
If you know?
5 (E)Every word of God is [a]pure;
(F)He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.
6 (G)Do not add to His words,
Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.
7 Two things I request of You
(Deprive me not before I die):
8 Remove falsehood and lies far from me;
Give me neither poverty nor riches—
(H)Feed me with the food allotted to me;
9 (I)Lest I be full and deny You,
And say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or lest I be poor and steal,
And profane the name of my God.
10 Do not malign a servant to his master,
Lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.
11 There is a generation that curses its (J)father,
And does not bless its mother.
12 There is a generation (K)that is pure in its own eyes,
Yet is not washed from its filthiness.
13 There is a generation—oh, how (L)lofty are their eyes!
And their eyelids are [b]lifted up.
14 (M)There is a generation whose teeth are like swords,
And whose fangs are like knives,
(N)To devour the poor from off the earth,
And the needy from among men.
15 The leech has two daughters—
Give and Give!
There are three things that are never satisfied,
Four never say, “Enough!”:
16 (O)The[c] grave,
The barren womb,
The earth that is not satisfied with water—
And the fire never says, “Enough!”
17 (P)The eye that mocks his father,
And scorns obedience to his mother,
The ravens of the valley will pick it out,
And the young eagles will eat it.
18 There are three things which are too wonderful for me,
Yes, four which I do not understand:
19 The way of an eagle in the air,
The way of a serpent on a rock,
The way of a ship in the [d]midst of the sea,
And the way of a man with a virgin.
20 This is the way of an adulterous woman:
She eats and wipes her mouth,
And says, “I have done no wickedness.”
21 For three things the earth is perturbed,
Yes, for four it cannot bear up:
22 (Q)For a servant when he reigns,
A fool when he is filled with food,
23 A [e]hateful woman when she is married,
And a maidservant who succeeds her mistress.
24 There are four things which are little on the earth,
But they are exceedingly wise:
25 (R)The ants are a people not strong,
Yet they prepare their food in the summer;
26 (S)The [f]rock badgers are a feeble folk,
Yet they make their homes in the crags;
27 The locusts have no king,
Yet they all advance in ranks;
28 The [g]spider skillfully grasps with its hands,
And it is in kings’ palaces.
29 There are three things which are majestic in pace,
Yes, four which are stately in walk:
30 A lion, which is mighty among beasts
And does not turn away from any;
31 A [h]greyhound,
A male goat also,
And [i]a king whose troops are with him.
32 If you have been foolish in exalting yourself,
Or if you have devised evil, (T)put your hand on your mouth.
33 For as the churning of milk produces butter,
And wringing the nose produces blood,
So the forcing of wrath produces strife.
