Proverbs 30:20-28 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

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.

28. The stellio supporteth itself on hands, and dwelleth in kings' houses.
