Under three things the earth is disquieted, and for four it cannot bear: For a servant when he reigns; and a fool when he is filled with food; For a detestable woman when she is married; and a handmaid who is heir to her mistress. There are four things that are little upon the earth, but they (chakam: teach wisdom) are exceeding wise: The ants are beings that are not strong, yet they prepare their food in the summer. The rock badgers are a feeble folk, yet they make their houses in the rocks. The locusts have no king, yet they advance in ranks. The spider grasps with her hands, and in kings' palaces. There are three things that go well, yes, four go well: A lion is strongest among beasts and does not run from anything. A greyhound, a he goat also and a king, against whom there is no rising up.
