18. Three things are too wonderful for me,yes, four I cannot understand:
19. The way of an eagle in the sky,the way of a serpent upon a rock,The way of a ship on the high seas,and the way of a man with a woman.
20. This is the way of an adulterous woman:she eats, wipes her mouth,and says, “I have done no wrong.”
21. Under three things the earth trembles,yes, under four it cannot bear up:
22. Under a slave who becomes king,and a fool who is glutted with food;
23. Under an unloved woman who is wed,and a maidservant who displaces her mistress.
