Proverbs 30:15-23

15The leechH5936 has twoH8147 daughtersH1323: GiveH3051 and GiveH3051.

ThereH2007 are threeH7969 things that are neverH3808 satisfiedH7646, fourH702 that neverH3808 sayH559, ‘EnoughH1952!’:

16SheolH7585, the barrenH6115 wombH7356, landH776 neverH3808 satisfiedH7646 with waterH4325, and fireH784 that neverH3808 saysH559, ‘EnoughH1952!’

17As for the eyeH5869 that mocksH3932 a fatherH1and scornsH936 obedienceH3349 to a motherH517,may the ravensH6158 of the valleyH5158 pluck it outH5365and youngH1121 vulturesH5404 devour itH398.

18ThereH1992 are threeH7969 things too wonderfulH6381 for meH4480, fourH702 that I cannotH3808 understandH3045:

19the wayH1870 of an eagleH5404 in the skyH8064, the wayH1870 of a snakeH5175 onH5921 a rockH6697, the wayH1870 of a shipH591 at seaH3820H3220, and the wayH1870 of a manH1397 with a maidenH5959.

20ThisH3651 is the wayH1870 of an adulteressH802H5003:She eatsH398 and wipesH4229 her mouthH6310and saysH559, ‘I have doneH6466 nothingH3808 wrongH205.’

21UnderH8478 three thingsH7969 the earthH776 tremblesH7264, underH8478 fourH702 it cannotH3808H3201 bear upH5375:

22a servantH5650 whoH3588 becomes kingH4427, a foolH5036 whoH3588 is filledH7646 with foodH3899, 23an unloved womanH8130 whoH3588 marriesH1166, and a maidservantH8198 whoH3588 supplantsH3423 her mistressH1404.
