Proverbs 30:30-32
Authorized (King James) Version
30 a lion which is strongest among beasts,
and turneth not away for any;
31 a greyhound; an he goat also;
and a king, against whom there is no rising up.
32 If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself,
or if thou hast thought evil,
lay thine hand upon thy mouth.
Proverbs 30:30-32
New International Version
30 a lion, mighty among beasts,
who retreats before nothing;
31 a strutting rooster, a he-goat,
and a king secure against revolt.[a]
32 “If you play the fool and exalt yourself,
or if you plan evil,
clap your hand over your mouth!(A)
