Proverbs 30:18-31

18There are three things which are too wonderful for me,Yea, four which I know not:19The way of an eagle in the air;The way of a serpent upon a rock;The way of a ship in the midst of the sea;And the way of a man with a maiden.20So is the way of an adulterous woman;She eateth, and wipeth her mouth,And saith, I have done no wickedness.21For three things the earth doth tremble,And for four, whichit cannot bear:22For a servant when he is king;And a fool when he is filled with food;23For an odious woman when she is married;And a handmaid that is heir to her mistress.24There are four things which are little upon the earth,But they are exceeding wise:25The ants are a people not strong,Yet they provide their food in the summer;26The conies are but a feeble folk,Yet make they their houses in the rocks;27The locusts have no king,Yet go they forth all of them by bands;28The lizard taketh hold with her hands,Yet is she in kings’ palaces.29There are three things which are stately in their march,Yea, four which are stately in going:30The lion, which is mightiest among beasts,And turneth not away for any;31The greyhound; the he-goat also;And the king against whom there is no rising up.
