Proverbs 30:15-23

15The leech has two daughters: “Give, Give!” Three things are never satisfied; four never say, “Enough!”:

16Sheol; a childless womb; earth, which is never satisfied with water; and fire, which never says, “Enough!”

17As for the eye that ridicules a father and despises obedience to a mother, may ravens of the valley pluck it out and young vultures eat it.

18Three things are too wondrous for me; four I can’t understand:

19the way of an eagle in the sky, the way of a snake on a rock, the way of a ship at sea, and the way of a man with a young woman.

20This is the way of an adulteress: she eats and wipes her mouth and says, “I’ve done nothing wrong.”

21The earth trembles under three things; it cannot bear up under four:

22a servant when he becomes king, a fool when he is stuffed with food,

23an unloved woman when she marries, and a servant girl when she ousts her queen.
