Exaltation » Of men (promotion) » Of unworthy men
Unseemly for dullard, is delicate living, how much more for, a servant, to bear rule over princes.
and Haman recounted unto them the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, - and all the things wherein the king had promoted him to power, and how he had advanced him, above the rulers and the servants of the king.
After these things, did King Ahasuerus promote to power Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and exalted him, - and placed his seat above all the rulers who were with him.
Honour, shall the wise inherit, - but, as for dullards, shame shall carry them away.
Under a servant, when he reigneth, and a base man, when he is surfeited with food;
I had seen, servants, upon horses, - and, rulers, walking like servants, on the ground.

Riddle » By agur
The vampire, hath two daughters, Give! Give! Three, there are will not be satisfied, four, have not said, Enough! Hades, and barrenness, - A land not satisfied with water, and fire, that saith not, Enough!
Three, things there are, too difficult for me, yea, four, which I do not understand: The way of an eagle in the heavens, the way of a serpent on the rock, - the way of a ship in the heart of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid. So, is the way of a woman committing adultery, - she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no iniquity! read more.
Under three things, a land is stirred, yea, under four, she cannot bear up: Under a servant, when he reigneth, and a base man, when he is surfeited with food; Under a hateful woman, when she is married, and a handmaid when she driveth out her mistress. Four, things there are, the small of the earth, - yet, they, are wiser than the wise: The ants, a people, not strong, - yet prepare they, in summer, their food; The conies, a people of, no power, yet set they, among the crags, their house; King, is there none, to, the locusts, - yet go forth in swarms, do they all; The lizard, with hands, reneweth its hold, - yet, the same, is in the palaces of the king. Three, things there are which step along well, ye, four, which excel in going: The lion, hero among beasts, which turneth aside from the face of no one; The greyhound, or the he-goat, - and a king, having a band of soldiers with him.
