1 瑪薩人雅刻之子阿古爾的格言,即他給依提耳、給依提耳和烏加耳的斷語:
word Agur son: child Jakeh [the] burden utterance [the] great man to/for `God` to/for `God` and `worn out`
for stupid I from man: anyone and not understanding man to/for me
and not to learn: learn wisdom and knowledge holy to know
4 誰曾上升過天而又降下﹖誰能將風收集在手中﹖誰能將水聚集在大衣內﹖誰為這大地立定了邊界﹖他叫什麼名字﹖其子姓甚名誰﹖你知道嗎﹖

9 免得我吃飽了,背叛你說:「誰是上主﹖」或是過於貧乏,因而行竊,加辱我天主的名。

way: journey [the] eagle in/on/with heaven way: journey serpent upon rock way: journey fleet in/on/with heart sea and way: journey great man in/on/with maiden
20 淫婦的作風是這樣:她吃了後,抹抹口說:「我並沒有為非作歹。」

21 使地戰慄的事,共有三樣,連不可容忍的,共有四樣:

32 你一時糊塗,高舉了自己,當你反省時,應以手掩口;
if be senseless in/on/with to lift: exalt and if to plan hand to/for lip
33 因為攪動乳汁,可出奶油;用力扭鼻,可流鮮血;激起憤怒,必生爭端。
