20:030:010 Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest
he curse thee, and
thou
be found guilty.
20:030:011 There is a generation that curseth their
father, and doth not
bless
their mother.
20:030:012 There is a generation that are pure in
their own eyes, and yet
is
not washed from their filthiness.
20:030:013 There is a generation, O how lofty are
their eyes! and their
eyelids
are lifted up.
20:030:014 There is a generation, whose teeth are
as swords, and their
jaw
teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth,
and
the needy from among men.
20:030:015 The horseleach hath two daughters, crying,
Give, give. There
are
three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things
say
not, It is enough:
20:030:016 The grave; and the barren womb; the earth
that is not filled
with
water; and the fire that saith not, It is enough.
20:030:017 The eye that mocketh at his father, and
despiseth to obey his
mother,
the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the
young
eagles shall eat it.
20:030:018 There be three things which are too wonderful
for me, yea,
four
which I know not:
20:030:019 The way of an eagle in the air; the way
of a serpent upon a
rock;
the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the
way
of
a man with a maid.
20:030:020 Such is the way of an adulterous woman;
she eateth, and wipeth
her
mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness.
20:030:021 For three things the earth is disquieted,
and for four which
it
cannot bear:
20:030:022 For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool
when he is filled
with
meat;
20:030:023 For an odious woman when she is married;
and an handmaid that
is
heir to her mistress.
20:030:024 There be four things which are little upon
the earth, but they
are
exceeding wise:
20:030:025 The ants are a people not strong, yet they
prepare their meat
in
the summer;
20:030:026 The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make
they their houses
in
the rocks;
20:030:027 The locusts have no king, yet go they forth
all of them by
bands;
20:030:028 The spider taketh hold with her hands,
and is in kings’
palaces.
20:030:029 There be three things which go well, yea,
four are comely in
going:
20:030:030 A lion which is strongest among beasts,
and turneth not away
for
any;
20:030:031 A greyhound; an he goat also; and a king,
against whom there
is
no rising up.
20:030:032 If thou hast done foolishly in lifting
up thyself, or if thou
hast
thought evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth.
