‏ Proverbs 30:3

Verse 3. I neither learned wisdom] I have never been a scholar in any of those schools of the wise men, nor have the knowledge of the holy, kedoshim, of the saints or holy persons.

The Septuagint give this a different turn: θεοςδεδιδαχεμε σοφιανκαιγνωσιναγιωνεγνωκα; "God hath taught me wisdom, and the knowledge of the saints I have known."

This may refer to the patriarchs, prophets, or holy men, that lived before the days of Solomon. That is, the translators might have had these in view.
