I understand that the Aionian Bible republishes public domain and Creative Commons Bible texts and that volunteers may be needed to present the original text accurately. I also understand that apocryphal text is removed and most variant verse numbering is mapped to the English standard. I have entered my corrections under the verse(s) below. Proposed corrections to the Translation for Translators, Proverbs Chapter 30 https://www.AionianBible.org/Bibles/English---Trans-Trans/Proverbs/30 1) These are sayings/messages that God gave to Agur, the son of Jakeh. [Agur wrote them] for Ithiel and Ucal. 2) It seems that I am very stupid; I do not deserve to be considered to be a human; I do not have the good sense that humans should have. 3) I have not learned [how to become] wise and I do not know [much] about God. 4) [But let me say this]: No one [RHQ] has ascended to heaven [to find out what God is like] and returned [to tell us]. No one [RHQ] has gathered/held the wind in his hand. No one [RHQ] has wrapped the water [in the ocean] in [a piece of] cloth, and no one [RHQ] has established the boundaries of the earth. [If you know who has done those things, tell me] [RHQ] his name, and the names of his children [SAR]! [But you do not know who has done those things, so you cannot speak with authority about what God is like]. 5) Everything that God has said is true; he is [like] a shield [MET] for all those who request him to protect them. 6) Do not add to (OR, change) what God has said; if you do that, he will rebuke you and show that you are lying. 7) [God], I ask you to do two things for me; [please] do them before I die: 8) Help me never to lie or deceive [people] and do not cause me to become poor or to become rich. [Just] give me the food that I need; 9) because if I become rich, I might say that I do not [RHQ] know you and that I do not need you; and if I become poor, I might dishonor you by stealing things. 10) Do not (slander/say bad things about) a worker to his boss; if you do that, the worker will curse you, and cause you to have trouble. 11) [I will list four kinds of evil things that people do]: Some people curse their fathers and do not [ask God to] bless their mothers. 12) Some people think that they are perfect, but [really] they have never been cleansed from their guilt for committing disgusting sins. 13) Some people are very proud; they think that they are very good and they despise others. 14) Some people [act very cruelly toward others]; [it is as though] [MET] they have teeth that are [like] sharp knives; they severely oppress poor [people] and try to cause them to disappear from the land. 15) Leeches [are always wanting more blood to suck]; [similarly, greedy people are always] saying “Give [me some]!” or “Give [me more]!” [MET] There are four things that are never (satisfied/content with what they have); they always want more [LIT]: 16) The place where the dead people are; women who do not have any children; ground that needs water/rain; and a fire that always needs more wood. (Sheol h7585) 17) Those who [SYN] make fun of their fathers or refuse to obey their mothers (OR, despise their aged mothers) should [die and] have their eyes pecked out by crows, and the [rest of their corpses should be] fed to the vultures. 18) There are four things that are wonderful to me, [but] I do not understand any of them: 19) How eagles fly in the sky, how snakes [are able to] move/crawl across a big rock, how ships sail on the seas, and how a man falls in love with a woman. 20) This is what a woman who (is not faithful to/does not have sex only with) her husband does: She commits adultery [EUP], and [then] bathes and says, “I have not done anything that is wrong!” 21) There are four things that no [one in] the world can tolerate: 22) [What] a slave [does who] becomes a king, a foolish person eating [too much] food, 23) [what] a woman who is hated [does when she] gets married, and [what] a female servant [does when she] becomes the boss instead of her mistress. 24) [There are] four animals on the earth that are small, but they are very wise: 25) Ants are not strong, but they store up food during the summer [in order to have it during the winter]. 26) Rock badgers [also] are not strong, but they make their homes among the rocks [where they will be safe]. 27) Locusts do not have a king, but they march like [the soldiers in] an army. 28) Lizards/Geckos [are very small and] you can hold them in your hand, but they are [cleverly able to get] inside kings’ palaces. 29) [There are] four animals that strut around and look very impressive while they walk [DOU]: 30) Lions, which are stronger than all other animals and are not afraid of any of them; 31) male goats, strutting roosters, and kings who (parade/walk proudly back and forth) in front of the people whom they rule. 32) If you have acted foolishly, exalting yourself, or if you been planning [to do something] evil, stop it immediately [IDM]! 33) If you churn milk, it produces butter/curds, and if you hit [someone hard on his] nose, [his nose] bleeds; similarly, if you do something to cause [people to become] angry, strife [usually] results.
