18. Three things are hard to me, and the fourth I am utterly ignorant of.
19. 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 in youth.
20. Such is also the way of an adulterous woman, who eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith: I have done no evil.
21. By three things the earth is disturbed, and the fourth it cannot bear:
22. By a slave when he reigneth: by a fool when he is filled with meat:
23. By an odious woman when she is married: and by a bondwoman when she is heir to her mistress.
24. There are four very little things of the earth, and they are wiser than the wise:
25. The ants, a feeble people, which provide themselves food in the harvest:
26. The rabbit, a weak people, which maketh its bed in the rock:
27. The locust hath no king, yet they all go out by their bands.
