Proverbs 30:15-23

15The leech hath twoH8147 daughtersH1323: GiveH3051, giveH3051. There are threeH7969 [thingsH7969] never satisfiedH7646; fourH702 which sayH559 not, It is enough:

16— SheolH7585, and the barren wombH7356; the earthH776 which is not filled with waterH4325, and the fireH784 which saith not, It is enough.

17The eyeH5869 that mocketh at a fatherH1, and despiseth to obey a motherH517, the ravensH6158 of the valley shall pick it out, and the youngH1121 eaglesH5404 shall eatH398 it.

18There are threeH7969 [thingsH7969] too wonderfulH6381 for me, and fourH702 that I knowH3045 not:

19The wayH1870 of an eagleH5404 in the heavensH8064, the wayH1870 of a serpent upon a rockH6697, the wayH1870 of a shipH591 in the midst of the seaH3220, and the wayH1870 of a manH1397 with a maid.

20Such is the wayH1870 of an adulterousH5003 womanH802: she eateth, and wipeth her mouthH6310, and saith, I have done no wickednessH205.

21Under threeH7969 [thingsH7969] the earthH776 is disquieted, and under fourH702 it cannot bearH5375 up:

22Under a servantH5650 when he reigneth, and a churl when he is filled with meat;

23under an odious [woman] when she is marriedH1166, and a handmaid when she is heir to her mistressH1404.
