15 [⁴to the 3588 ⁵leech ²three 5140 ³daughters 2364 ¹There were ⁷in affection ⁶being loved], 25 3588 these 3778 three 5140 did not 3756 fulfill 1705 her, 1473 and 2532 to the 3588 fourth 5067 it was not 3756 sufficient 714 to say, 2036 Enough -- 2425
16 Hades, 86 and 2532 passion of a woman, 1135 and 2532 earth 1093 not 3756 filled 1705 with water; 5204 and 2532 water 5204 and 2532 fire 4442 in no way shall say, 2036 It sufficies. 714
17 The eye 3788 ridiculing 2606 a father, 3962 and 2532 dishonoring 818 the old age 1094 of a mother -- 3384 [⁵cut it out ¹let the crows 2876 ²from 1537 ³the 3588 ⁴ravines], 5327 and 2532 may [³devour 2719 ⁴it 1473 ¹ the young 3502 ²of the eagles]. 105
18 [³three things 5140 ¹And 1161 ²there are] impossible 102 for me 1473 to comprehend, 3539 and 2532 the 3588 fourth 5067 I do not 3756 know -- 1921
19 the traces 2487 [²eagle 105 ¹of a flying], 4072 and 2532 the ways 3598 of a serpent 3789 upon 1909 a rock, 4073 and 2532 the paths 5147 of a ship 3491 passing through the sea, and 2532 the ways 3598 of a man 435 in 1722 youth. 3503
20 Such is the 5108 way 3598 [²woman 1135 ¹of an adulterous], 3428 3588 whenever 3752 she should act 4238 in washing herself , 633 [²not 3762 ¹she says] 5346 to have acted 4238 out of place. 824
21 By 1223 three things 5140 [³is shaken 4579 ¹the 3588 ²earth], 1093 and 1161 the 3588 fourth 5067 it is not 3756 able 1410 to bear -- 5342
22 if 1437 a domestic servant 3610 should reign, 936 and 2532 a fool 878 should be filled 4130 with food,
23 and 2532 a female domestic servant, if 1437 she is cast out 1544 3588 by her own 1438 lady, 2959 and 2532 a hateful wife 1135 if 1437 she should attain 5177 [²man 435 ¹a good]. 18
24 [³four 5064 ¹And 1161 ²there are] lesser things 1640 upon 1909 the 3588 earth, 1093 and 1161 these 3778 are wiser 4680 than the 3588 wise -- 4680
25 the 3588 ants in whom 3739 there is no strength, 2479 and 2532 they prepare 2090 [²in summer 2330 3588 ¹nourishment]. 5160
26 And 2532 the 3588 rabbits -- a nation 1484 not 3756 being strong, 2478 the ones 3588 making 4160 [³in 1722 ⁴ the rocks 4073 3588 ¹their own 1438 ²houses]. 3624

28 And 2532 the newt, with its hands 5495 sticking, 2043 and 2532 [²easily caught ¹being], it dwells 2730 in 1722 the fortresses 3794 of kings. 935
29 [³three 5140 ¹And 1161 ²there are] which 3739 [²prosperously ¹go], 4198 and 2532 the 3588 fourth 5067 which 3739 [²well 2573 ¹passes over] -- 1224
30 [²cub ¹a lion] 3023 is stronger than 2478 the beasts, 2934 which 3739 does not 3756 turn away, 654 nor 3761 is struck with awe of any beast, 2934
31 and 2532 a rooster 220 walking about 1704 among 1722 females 2338 confidently, and 2532 a he-goat 5131 taking the lead 2233 of a flock of goats, and 2532 a king 935 delivering a public address 1215 to 1722 a nation. 1484
32 If 1437 you should let go of yourself 4572 in 1519 gladness, 2167 and 2532 should stretch out 1614 3588 your 1473 hand 5495 for 3326 a fight 3163 you shall be dishonored. 818
33 Extract milk, 1051 and 2532 there will be butter; but 1161 if 1437 you should pressure the nostrils there shall come forth 1831 blood; 129 and 1161 if 1437 you should drag out 1828 words, 3056 there shall come forth 1831 litigations 2920 and 2532 fights. 3163
1 3588 My 1699 words 3056 have been spoken 2046 by 5259 God; 2316 [²by a king 935 ¹ the divine answer], 5538 whom 3739 [²instructed 3811 3588 ¹his 1473 mother]. 3384
2 What, 5100 O child, 5043 will you give heed to? 5083 What 5100 sayings of God, 2316 O first-born, to you 1473 I speak, 3004 O son? 5207 What, 5100 O child 5043 of my 1699 belly? 2836 What, 5100 O child 5043 of my 1699 vows? 2171
3 You should not 3361 give 1325 [³to women 1135 ¹your 4674 ²wealth], 4149 nor 2532 3588 your 4674 mind 3563 and 2532 livelihood 979 for 1519 an afterthought. [³with 3326 ⁴counsel 1012 ²all things 3956 ¹Do]! 4160 [²with 3326 ³counsel 1012 ¹Drink wine]!

12 For she exacts energy to 3588 her husband 435 for good, 18 and 2532 not 3756 bad 2556 for all 3956 the 3588 livelihood. 979

14 She became 1096 as 5616 a ship 3491 trading 1710 far off. 3113 She gathers together 4863 her 1473 3588 wealth, 979
15 and 2532 she rises up 450 at 1537 nights, 3571 and 2532 appoints 1325 foods 1033 to the 3588 household, 3624 and 2532 works 2041 to the 3588 female attendants.
16 In viewing 2334 a farm, 1091 she buys; and 1161 from 575 the fruits 2590 of her hands she plants a possession. 2933
17 Girding up 328 [²strongly 3588 ¹her 1473 loin], 3751 she establishes 2043 3588 her 1473 arms 1023 for 1519 work. 2041
18 She tastes 1089 that 3754 it is good 3588 to work; 2038 and 2532 [²is not 3756 ³extinguished 3588 ¹her 1473 lamp] 3088 all 3650 the 3588 night. 3571
19 3588 [²her 1473 cubits 4083 ¹She stretches out] 1614 unto 1909 the things 3588 being advantageous; 4851 and the things of her hands she sticks 2043 to 1519 the spindle.

22 A double goat's hair coat she made 4160 3588 for her husband; and from out of linen 1040 and 2532 purple material 4209 garments for herself.
23 [⁴admired ¹And 1161 ³is 1096 3588 ²her 1473 husband] 435 at 1722 the gate 4439 when 2259 ever 302 he should sit 2523 in 1722 the sanhedrin 4892 with 3326 the 3588 aged 1088 of the 3588 land. 1093
