Proverbs 30:18-31

18Three things are too amazing for me, four I do not understand:

19the way of an eagle in the sky, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the heart of the sea, and the way of a man with a maiden.

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

21Under three things the earth trembles, and under four it cannot bear up:

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

23an unloved woman when she is married, and a handmaid when she displaces her mistress.

24Four things on earth are small, yet they are exceedingly wise:

25ants are creatures with little strength, yet they store up their food in summer;

26coneys are creatures with little power, yet they make their homes in the cliffs;

27locusts have no king, yet they advance together in ranks;

28a lizard you can catch with the hand, yet it is found in kings’ palaces.

29Three things are stately in their stride, four that move with stately bearing:

30a lion, mighty among beasts, who never backs down from anything;

31a strutting rooster, a male-goat, and a king with his army around him.
