In context

1 The words of Agur, son of Jakeh, [even] the oracle,—The utterance of the man, for Ithiel, for Ithiel and Ucal.

2 Surely, more brutish, am, I, than any man, nor doth, the understanding of a son of earth, pertain to me;

3 Neither have I learned wisdom, nor, the knowledge of the Holy Ones, can I acquire.

4 Who hath ascended the heavens and then descended? Who hath gathered the wind into his two hands? Who hath wrapped up the waters in a mantle? Who hath set up all the ends of the earth? What is his name and what the name of his son, when thou knowest?

5 Every saying of God is refined, A shield, is, he, to them who seek refuge in him.
