10	Accuse not a servant unto his lord, Lest he disesteem thee, and thou be found guilty.

11	A generation [is], that lightly esteemeth their father, And their mother doth not bless.

12	A generation -- pure in their own eyes, But from their own filth not washed.

13	A generation -- how high are their eyes, Yea, their eyelids are lifted up.

14	A generation -- swords [are] their teeth, And knives -- their jaw-teeth, To consume the poor from earth, And the needy from [among] men.

15	To the leech [are] two daughters, `Give, give, Lo, three things are not satisfied, Four have not said `Sufficiency;`

16	Sheol, and a restrained womb, Earth -- it [is] not satisfied [with] water, And fire -- it hath not said, `Sufficiency,`

17	An eye that mocketh at a father, And despiseth to obey a mother, Dig it out do ravens of the valley, And eat it do young eagles.

18	Three things have been too wonderful for me, Yea, four that I have not known:

19	The way of the eagle in the heavens, The way of a serpent on a rock, The way of a ship in the heart of the sea, And the way of a man in youth.

20	So -- the way of an adulterous woman, She hath eaten and hath wiped her mouth, And hath said, `I have not done iniquity.`

22	For a servant when he reigneth, And a fool when he is satisfied with bread,

23	For a hated one when she ruleth, And a maid-servant when she succeedeth her mistress.

24	Four [are] little ones of earth, And they are made wiser than the wise:

25	The ants [are] a people not strong, And they prepare in summer their food,

26	Conies [are] a people not strong, And they place in a rock their house,

30	An old lion -- mighty among beasts, That turneth not back from the face of any,

31	A girt one of the loins, or a he-goat, And a king -- no rising up with him.

32	If thou hast been foolish in lifting up thyself, And if thou hast devised evil -- hand to mouth!

33	For the churning of milk bringeth out butter, And the wringing of the nose bringeth out blood, And the forcing of anger bringeth out strife!
