Today is the 30th of the month.

Welcome to the Daily Audio Proverb.

I'm Brian Harden from Daily AudioBibbiblical.com.

It is my joy to be here with you today as we spend five minutes

pouring unfiltered wisdom into our souls and lives

from the ultimate book of wisdom, the book of Proverbs. We'll be reading the 30th chapter

of the book of Proverbs today from the New English translation. The words of Agur, the son of

jake, an oracle. This man says to Ithiel, to Ithiel and to Eucal.

Surely I am more brutish than any other human being,

and I do not have human understanding.

I have not learned wisdom, nor do I have knowledge of the Holy One.

Who has ascended into heaven and then descended? Who has gathered up

the winds in his fists? Who has bound up the waters in his cloak? Who has established all the ends of the

earth? What is his name? And what is his son's name, if you know? Every word of God is purified.

He is like a shield for those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, lest he reprove you,

and prove you to be a liar.

Two things I ask from you. Do not refuse me before I die.

Remove falsehood and lies far from me. Do not give me poverty or riches.

Feed me with my allotted portion of bread, lest I become satisfied and act deceptively and say, Who is the Lord?

Or lest I become poor and steal and mean the name of my God?

Do not slander a servant to his master, lest he curse you, and you are found guilty.

There is a generation who curse their fathers and do not bless their mothers.
