Proverbs 30:23-33

²³Under an odious woman when she is married, and a bond-woman when she dispossesseth her mistress.

²⁴There are four which are the little ones of the earth, and they are nevertheless exceedingly wise:

²⁵The ants are a people not strong, therefore do they prepare in the summer their food;

²⁶The conies are but a feeble people, therefore do they place on the rocks their houses;

²⁷The locusts have no king, and yet they go forth in troops altogether;

²⁸The spider thou canst catch with thy hands, and yet she is in the palaces of a king.

²⁹Three there are that have a stately step, and four, that are stately in going:

³⁰The lion, the mightiest among beasts, who turneth not round from before any one;

³¹The light-legged greyhound, and the he-goat; and a king, against whom there is no rising up.

³²If thou hast become degraded by lifting up thyself, or if thou hast devised evil, put thy hand to thy mouth:

³³For the pressure of milk bringeth forth butter, and the pressure of the nose bringeth forth blood: so the pressure of wrath bringeth forth strife.
