>
30:1The wordis of hym that gaderith, of the sone spuynge. The prophesie which a man spak, with whom God was, and which man was coumfortid bi God dwellyng with hym,
30:2and seide, Y am the moost fool of men; and the wisdom of men is not with me.
30:3Y lernede not wisdom; and Y knew not the kunnyng of hooli men.
30:4Who stiede in to heuene, and cam doun? Who helde togidere the spirit in hise hondis? who bonde togidere watris as in a cloth? Who reiside alle the endis of erthe? What is name of hym? and what is the name of his sone, if thou knowist?
30:5Ech word of God is a scheld set a fiere, to alle that hopen in hym.
30:6Adde thou not ony thing to the wordis of hym, and thou be repreued, and be foundun a liere.
30:7I preiede thee twei thingis; denye not thou to me, bifor that Y die.
30:8Make thou fer fro me vanyte and wordis of leesyng; yyue thou not to me beggery and richessis; yyue thou oneli necessaries to my lijflode;
30:9lest perauenture Y be fillid, and be drawun to denye, and seie, Who is the Lord? and lest Y compellid bi nedynesse, stele, and forswere the name of my God.
30:10Accuse thou not a seruaunt to his lord, lest perauenture he curse thee, and thou falle doun.
30:11A generacioun that cursith his fadir, and that blessith not his modir.
30:12A generacioun that semeth cleene to it silf, and netheles is not waischun fro hise filthis.
30:13A generacioun whose iyen ben hiy, and the iye liddis therof ben reisid in to hiy thingis.
30:14A generacioun that hath swerdis for teeth, and etith with hise wank teeth; that it ete nedi men of erthe, and the porails of men.
30:15The watir leche hath twei douytris, seiynge, Brynge, bringe. Thre thingis ben vnable to be fillid, and the fourthe, that seith neuere, It suffisith;
30:16helle, and the mouth of the wombe, and the erthe which is neuere fillid with water; but fier seith neuere, It suffisith.
30:17Crowis of the stronde picke out thilke iye, that scorneth the fadir, and that dispisith the child beryng of his modir; and the briddis of an egle ete that iye.
30:18Thre thingis ben hard to me, and outirli Y knowe not the fourthe thing;
30:19the weye of an egle in heuene, the weie of a serpent on a stoon, the weie of a schip in the myddil of the see, and the weie of a man in yong wexynge age.
30:20Siche is the weie of a womman auowtresse, which etith, and wipith hir mouth, and seith, Y wrouyte not yuel.
30:21The erthe is moued bi thre thingis, and the fourthe thing, which it may not susteyne;
30:22bi a seruaunt, whanne he regneth; bi a fool, whanne he is fillid with mete;
30:23bi an hateful womman, whanne sche is takun in matrymonye; and bi an handmaide, whanne sche is eir of hir ladi.
30:24Foure ben the leeste thingis of erthe, and tho ben wisere than wise men;
30:25amtis, a feble puple, that maken redi mete in heruest to hem silf;
30:26a hare, a puple vnmyyti, that settith his bed in a stoon;
30:27a locust hath no kyng, and al goith out bi cumpanyes; an euete enforsith with hondis,
30:28and dwellith in the housis of kingis.
30:29Thre thingis ben, that goon wel, and the fourthe thing, that goith richeli.
30:30A lioun, strongeste of beestis, schal not drede at the meetyng of ony man;
30:31a cok gird the leendis, and a ram, and noon is that schal ayenstonde him.
30:32He that apperith a fool, aftir that he is reisid an hiy; for if he hadde vndurstonde, he hadde sett hond on his mouth.
30:33Forsothe he that thristith strongli teetis, to drawe out mylk, thristith out botere; and he that smytith greetli, drawith out blood; and he that stirith iris, bringith forth discordis.

 

30:1THE WORDS OF AGUR THE SONNE OF JAKE The prophecie which ye man spake vnto Ithiel, euen to Ithiel, and Vcal.
30:2Surely I am more foolish then any man, and haue not the vnderstanding of a man in me.
30:3For I haue not learned wisedome, nor atteined to the knowledge of holy things.
30:4Who hath ascended vp to heauen, and descended? Who hath gathered the winde in his fist? Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who hath established all the endes of the world? What is his name, and what is his sonnes name, if thou canst tell?
30:5Euery worde of God is pure: he is a shield to those, that trust in him.
30:6Put nothing vnto his wordes, least he reproue thee, and thou be found a lyar.
30:7Two things haue I required of thee: denie me them not before I die.
30:8Remooue farre from me vanitie and lyes: giue me not pouertie, nor riches: feede me with foode conuenient for me,
30:9Least I be full, and denie thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or least I be poore and steale, and take the Name of my God in vaine.
30:10Accuse not a seruant vnto his master, lest he curse thee, when thou hast offended.
30:11There is a generation that curseth their father, and doeth not blesse their mother.
30:12There is a generation that are pure in their owne conceite, and yet are not washed from their filthinesse.
30:13There is a generation, whose eies are hautie, and their eye liddes are lifted vp.
30:14There is a generation, whose teeth are as swordes, and their chawes as kniues to eate vp the afflicted out of the earth, and the poore from among men.
30:15The horse leache hath two daughters which crye, Giue, giue. There be three things that will not be satisfied: yea, foure that say not, It is ynough.
30:16The graue, and the barren wombe, the earth that cannot be satisfied with water, and the fire that sayeth not, It is ynough.
30:17The eye that mocketh his father and despiseth the instruction of his mother, let ye rauens of the valley picke it out, and the yong eagles eate it.
30:18There be three thinges hid from me: yea, foure that I knowe not,
30:19The way of an eagle in the aire, the way of a serpent vpon a stone, ye way of a ship in ye middes of the sea, and the way of a man with a maide.
30:20Such is ye way also of an adulterous woman: she eateth and wipeth her mouth, and sayth, I haue not committed iniquitie.
30:21For three things the earth is moued: yea, for foure it cannot susteine it selfe:
30:22For a seruant when he reigneth, and a foole when he is filled with meate,
30:23For the hatefull woman, when she is married, and for a handmaid that is heire to her mistres.
30:24These be foure small things in the earth, yet they are wise and full of wisedome:
30:25The pismires a people not strong, yet prepare they their meate in sommer:
30:26The conies a people not mightie, yet make their houses in the rocke:
30:27The grashopper hath no King, yet goe they forth all by bandes:
30:28The spider taketh holde with her handes, and is in Kings palaces.
30:29There be three thinges that order well their going: yea, foure are comely in going,
30:30A lyon which is strong among beastes, and turneth not at the sight of any:
30:31A lusty grayhound, and a goate, and a King against whom there is no rising vp.
30:32If thou hast bene foolish in lifting thy selfe vp, and if thou hast thought wickedly, lay thine hand vpon thy mouth.
30:33When one churneth milke, he bringeth foorth butter: and he that wringeth his nose, causeth blood to come out: so he that forceth wrath, bringeth foorth strife.
