Verse
Proverbs - ch 30 v 21 - 33
- By three things the earth is disturbed, and the fourth it cannot bear:
- By a slave when he reigneth: by a fool when he is filled with meat:
- By an odious woman when she is married: and by a bondwoman when she is heir to her mistress.
- There are four very little things of the earth, and they are wiser than the wise:
- The ants, a feeble people, which provide themselves food in the harvest:
- The rabbit, a weak people, which maketh its bed in the rock:
- The locust hath no king, yet they all go out by their bands.
- The stellio supporteth itself on hands, and dwelleth in kings' houses.
- There are three things, which go well, and the fourth that walketh happily:
- A lion, the strongest of beasts, who hath no fear of any thing he meeteth:
- A cock girded about the loins: and a ram: and a king, whom none can resist.
- There is that hath appeared a fool after he was lifted up on high: for if he had understood, he would have laid his hand upon his mouth.
- And he that strongly squeezeth the papa to bring out milk, straineth out butter: and he that violently bloweth his nose, bringeth out blood: and he that provoketh wrath bringeth forth strife.
