Sayings from Agur (30:133)\n * Agurs confession and prayer (30:19)\n * Seven numerical sayings (30:1031)\n * Concluding warning (30:3233)\n\nChapter 30 is the chapter in this book written by Agur, who is only mentioned here in the Bible.\n\n## Special concepts in this chapter\n\n### Numerical sayings\n\nIn [Proverbs 30:10](../30/10.md)[31](../30/31.md), Agur uses a rhetorical device in which he names a number that should be sufficient to illustrate his point and then increases that number by one for emphasis. If your language does not use numbers in this way, then consider more natural ways to express emphasis. Although he does not state the number of illustrations in [30:10](../30/10.md)[14](../30/14.md), he does state the number of illustrations for the sayings in [30:15](../30/15.md)[16](../30/16.md), [18](../30/18.md)[19](../30/19.md), [21](../30/21.md)[23](../30/23.md), [24](../30/24.md)[28](../30/28.md), and [29](../30/29.md)[31](../30/31.md).\n
