Proverbs 30:18-31

18There are three things that are too difficult for me to understand, even four things:

19How an eagle flies high in the sky. How a snake moves across a rock. How a ship sails on the sea. How a man starts to love a young woman.

20A woman who is not faithful to her husband does this: When she has sex with another man, she thinks it is like a meal that she has eaten. Then she washes herself and she says, ‘I have not done anything wrong.’ That is something else that I cannot understand.

21There are three things that make the earth shake, even four things:

22A slave who becomes a king. A fool who eats too much.

23A woman that nobody loves who marries a husband. A female servant who takes the place of the woman that she has served.

24There are four things that live on the earth which are very small, but they are also very wise:

25Ants are not very strong, but they prepare their food in the summer.

26Rock badgers are weak animals, but they make their homes among the rocks.

27Locusts have no king to lead them, but they all fly together as one.

28Lizards are easy to catch with your hand, but you will see them in kings' palaces.

29There are three things that seem great as they walk around, even four things:

30Lions are the strongest of all animals, and they are not afraid of anything.

31Cockerels that shout proudly. Male goats. A king who has his army with him.
