Proverbs 30

21  For three things the earth doth tremble, And for four, `which' it cannot bear:

22  For a servant when he is king; And a fool when he is filled with food;

23  For an odious woman when she is married; And a handmaid that is heir to her mistress.

24  There are four things which are little upon the earth, But they are exceeding wise:

25  The ants are a people not strong, Yet they provide their food in the summer;

26  The conies are but a feeble folk, Yet make they their houses in the rocks;

27  The locusts have no king, Yet go they forth all of them by bands;

28  The lizard taketh hold with her hands, Yet is she in kings' palaces.

29  There are three things which are stately in their march, Yea, four which are stately in going:

30  The lion, which is mightiest among beasts, And turneth not away for any;
