1 The words of Agur, son of Jakeh the Massaite:The pronouncement of mortal man: “I am weary, O God;I am weary, O God, and I am exhausted.
2 I am more brute than human being,without even human intelligence;
3 Neither have I learned wisdom,nor have I the knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Who has gone up to heaven and come down again—who has cupped the wind in the hollow of the hand?Who has bound up the waters in a cloak—who has established all the ends of the earth?What is that person’s name, or the name of his son?”
5 Every word of God is tested;he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
