"There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:"

Proverbs Chapter 30, Verse 24

Proverbs 30:24 in Context (Verses 21–27 KJV)

For three things the earth is disquieted, and for four which it cannot bear:

For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool when he is filled with meat;

For an odious woman when she is married; and an handmaid that is heir to her mistress.

There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:^*

The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;

The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks;

The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands;^*
