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. 20:030:033 Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood: so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife. 20:031:001 The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him. 20:031:002 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows? 20:031:003 Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings. 20:031:004 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink: 20:031:005 Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted. 20:031:006 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts. 20:031:007 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more. 20:031:008 Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction. 20:031:009 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy. 20:031:010 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. 20:031:011 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. 20:031:012 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. 20:031:013 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. 20:031:014 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. 20:031:015 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. 20:031:016 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. 20:031:017 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. 20:031:018 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. 20:031:019 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. 20:031:020 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
