Proverbs 30:30-32
1599 Geneva Bible
30 A lion which is strong among beasts, and turneth not at the sight of any:
31 A lusty greyhound, and a goat, and a king against whom there is no rising up.
32 If thou hast been foolish in lifting thyself up, and if thou hast thought wickedly, lay thine hand [a]upon thy mouth.

clap your hand over your mouth!(A)
