Proverbs 30:26-33 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

26. the rabbit, a sickened people who make their bed upon the rock.

27. The locust has no king, but they all depart by their troops.

28. The lizard supports itself on hands and dwells in the buildings of kings.

29. There are three things that advance well, and a fourth that marches happily on:

30. a lion, the strongest of beasts, who fears nothing that he meets,

31. a rooster prepared at the loins, likewise a ram, and a king, whom none can resist.

32. There is one who has appeared foolish, after he was lifted up on high; for if he had understood, he would have placed his hand over his mouth.

33. But whoever strongly squeezes the udder to bring out the milk, presses out butter. And whoever violently blows his nose, brings out blood. And whoever provokes wrath, brings forth discord."
