Proverbs

¹⁶Sheol; and the barren womb; The earth that is not satisfied with water; And the fire that saith not, Enough. ¹⁷The 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. ¹⁸There are three things which are too wonderful for me, Yea, four which I know not: ¹⁹The 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 maiden. ²⁰So is the way of an adulterous woman; She eateth, and wipeth her mouth, And saith, I have done no wickedness. ²¹For three things the earth doth tremble, And for four, which it cannot bear: ²²For a servant when he is king; And a fool when he is filled with food;
