WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 These are the words of Agur, son of Jakeh. An oracle. This is what the man says, God, I'm really tired, I'm worn out.
1 PALABRAS de Agur, hijo de Jachê: La profecía que dijo el varón á Ithiel, á Ithiel y á Ucal.
1 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, the revelation: the man says to Ithiel, to Ithiel and Ucal:
2 I'm so stupid I'm not really a man; I can't even think like a human being.
2 Ciertamente más rudo soy yo que ninguno, ni tengo entendimiento de hombre.
2 “Surely I am the most ignorant man, and don’t have a man’s understanding.
3 I have not learned wisdom; I have no knowledge of the Holy One.
3 Yo ni aprendí sabiduría, ni conozco la ciencia del Santo.
3 I have not learned wisdom, neither do I have the knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Who has gone up to heaven, and come down? Who holds the winds in the palm of his hands? Who has wrapped up the waters in his cloak? Who has set the earth's boundaries? What is his name, and what is his son's name? Are you sure you don't know?
4 ¿Quién subió al cielo, y descendió? ¿quién encerró los vientos en sus puños? ¿quién ató las aguas en un paño? ¿quién afirmó todos los términos de la tierra? ¿cuál es su nombre, y el nombre de su hijo, si sabes?
4 Who has ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has bound the waters in his garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son’s name, if you know?
5 Every word God says has been proved true. He defends everyone who comes to him for protection.
5 Toda palabra de Dios [es] limpia; es escudo á los que en él esperan.
5 “Every word of God is flawless. He is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
6 Don't add anything to his words, or he will criticize you and you'll be shown to be a liar.
6 No añadas á sus palabras, porque no te reprenda, y seas hallado mentiroso.
6 Don’t you add to his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar.
7 God, I want to request two things from you. Please don't refuse to let me have them before I come to die.
7 Dos cosas te he demandado; no me [las] niegues antes que muera.
7 “Two things I have asked of you. Don’t deny me before I die.
8 Keep me from being false, help me not to tell lies. Don't make me poor or rich; just provide me with the food I need.
8 Vanidad y palabra mentirosa aparta de mí. No me des pobreza ni riquezas; manténme del pan que he menester;
8 Remove far from me falsehood and lies. Give me neither poverty nor riches. Feed me with the food that is needful for me,
9 Otherwise if I have plenty of money, I may give up on you, saying, “Who is the Lord?” while if I'm poor I may steal and bring the name of my God into disrepute.
9 No sea que me harte, y [te] niegue, y diga, ¿Quién es Jehová? ó no sea que siendo pobre, hurte, y blasfeme el nombre de mi Dios.
9 lest I be full, deny you, and say, ‘Who is Yahweh?’ or lest I be poor, and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God.
10 Don't slander a servant to his master, or he will curse you and you'll suffer for it.
10 No acuses al siervo ante su señor, porque no te maldiga, y peques.
10 “Don’t slander a servant to his master, lest he curse you, and you be held guilty.
11 There are some who curse their fathers and do not bless their mothers.
11 Hay generación que maldice á su padre, y á su madre no bendice.
11 There is a generation that curses their father, and doesn’t bless their mother.
12 There are some who see themselves as pure but they're still filthy—they have not been washed.
12 Hay generación limpia en su opinión, si bien no se ha limpiado su inmundicia.
12 There is a generation that is pure in their own eyes, yet are not washed from their filthiness.
13 There are some who think themselves so high and mighty, and who look down on others.
13 Hay generación cuyos ojos son altivos, y cuyos párpados son alzados.
13 There is a generation, oh how lofty are their eyes! Their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There are some who have teeth like swords, incisors like knives, ready to devour the poor from the earth, the needy from society.
14 Hay generación cuyos dientes son espadas, y sus muelas cuchillos, para devorar á los pobres de la tierra, y de entre los hombres á los menesterosos.
14 There is a generation whose teeth are like swords, and their jaws like knives, to devour the poor from the earth, and the needy from among men.
15 The leech has two daughters who cry out, “Give me! Give me!” There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, “Enough!”:
15 La sanguijuela tiene dos hijas [que se llaman], Trae, trae. Tres cosas hay que nunca se hartan; [aun] la cuarta nunca dice, Basta:
15 “The leech has two daughters: ‘Give, give.’ “There are three things that are never satisfied; four that don’t say, ‘Enough!’:
16 The grave, the womb that doesn't become pregnant, the earth thirsty for water, and the fire that never says, “Enough!”
16 El sepulcro, y la matriz estéril, la tierra no harta de aguas, y el fuego que jamás dice, Basta.
16 Sheol, the barren womb, the earth that is not satisfied with water, and the fire that doesn’t say, ‘Enough!’
17 People who ridicule their fathers and despise obedience to the mother will have their eyes pecked out by wild ravens and eaten by young vultures.
17 El ojo que escarnece á su padre, y menosprecia la enseñanza de la madre, los cuervos lo saquen de la arroyada, y tráguenlo los hijos del águila.
17 “The eye that mocks at his father, and scorns obedience to his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, the young eagles shall eat it.
18 These three things are amazingly hard for me, four things I just can't understand:
18 Tres cosas me son ocultas; aun tampoco sé la cuarta:
18 “There are three things which are too amazing for me, four which I don’t understand:
19 The way an eagle soars in the sky, the way a snake slides over a rock, the way a ship sails across the sea, the way a man and a woman fall in love.
19 El rastro del águila en el aire; el rastro de la culebra sobre la peña; el rastro de la nave en medio de la mar; y el rastro del hombre en la moza.
19 The way of an eagle in the air, the way of a serpent on a rock, the way of a ship in the middle of the sea, and the way of a man with a maiden.
20 This is the way of a woman who commits adultery: she eats, she wipes her mouth, and then says, “I haven't done anything wrong!”
20 Tal es el rastro de la mujer adúltera: come, y limpia su boca, y dice: No he hecho maldad.
20 “So is the way of an adulterous woman: She eats and wipes her mouth, and says, ‘I have done nothing wrong.’
21 Three things make the earth tremble, there are four things it can't support:
21 Por tres cosas se alborota la tierra, y la cuarta no puede sufrir:
21 “For three things the earth trembles, and under four, it can’t bear up:
22 a slave becoming a king, a stupid person eating like a pig,
22 Por el siervo cuando reinare; y por el necio cuando se hartare de pan;
22 For a servant when he is king, a fool when he is filled with food,
23 an unbearable woman getting married, and a maidservant taking her mistress's place.
23 Por la aborrecida cuando se casare; y por la sierva cuando heredare á su señora.
23 for an unloved woman when she is married, and a servant who is heir to her mistress.
24 There are four things on earth that are small, but very wise:
24 Cuatro cosas son de las más pequeñas de la tierra, y las mismas son más sabias que los sabios:
24 “There are four things which are little on the earth, but they are exceedingly wise:
25 Ants—they're not strong, but they work hard all summer storing up food.
25 Las hormigas, pueblo no fuerte, y en el verano preparan su comida;
25 The ants are not a strong people, yet they provide their food in the summer.
26 Hyraxes—they don't have much power, but they make their homes in the rock.
26 Los conejos, pueblo nada esforzado, y ponen su casa en la piedra;
26 The hyraxes are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks.
27 Locusts—they don't have a king, but they all march in line abreast.
27 Las langostas, no tienen rey, y salen todas acuadrilladas;
27 The locusts have no king, yet they advance in ranks.
28 Lizards—you can catch them in your hands, but they live in the king's palace.
28 La araña, ase con las manos, y está en palacios de rey.
28 You can catch a lizard with your hands, yet it is in kings’ palaces.
29 There are three things that are glorious to watch as they walk, four that look dignified as they move:
29 Tres cosas hay de hermoso andar, y la cuarta pasea muy bien:
29 “There are three things which are stately in their march, four which are stately in going:
30 The lion, supreme among wild animals, who isn't frightened of anything.
30 El león, fuerte entre todos los animales, que no torna atrás por nadie;
30 The lion, which is mightiest among animals, and doesn’t turn away for any;
31 The strutting starling, the male goat, and a king with his army.
31 El [lebrel] ceñido de lomos; asimismo el macho cabrío; y un rey contra el cual ninguno se levanta.
31 the greyhound; the male goat; and the king against whom there is no rising up.
32 If you have been foolishly boasting about yourself, or if you've been planning to do something wrong, stop and put your hand over your mouth.
32 Si caiste, [fué] porque te enalteciste; y si mal pensaste, [pon] el dedo sobre la boca.
32 “If you have done foolishly in lifting up yourself, or if you have thought evil, put your hand over your mouth.
33 Just as churning milk produces butter, and twisting someone's nose makes it bleed, so stirring up anger causes arguments.
33 Ciertamente el que exprime la leche, sacará manteca; y el que recio se suena las narices, sacará sangre: y el que provoca la ira, causará contienda.
33 For as the churning of milk produces butter, and the wringing of the nose produces blood, so the forcing of wrath produces strife.”

The slave shook the world, since by three things the earth is shaken, and the fourth it cannot bear,--if a slave became a king.

There are in the Book of Proverbs three things which go well, a lion, a goat, and a cock; and to these is added a fourth;--a King making a speech before the people, to pass over the other sets of four which are there counted up, although things of various natures.
