| 29 | There are three things that walk with dignity, even four that march with dignity: | Three things are stately in their tread; four are stately in their stride: | “There are three things that are stately in their stride, four that move with stately bearing: | |
| 30 | a lion, mightiest among animals, which turns away from nothing, | the lion, which is mightiest among beasts and does not turn back before any; | a lion, mighty among beasts, who retreats before nothing; | |
| 31 | a strutting rooster, a male goat, a king at the head of his army. | the strutting rooster, the he-goat, and a king whose army is with him. | a strutting rooster, a he-goat, and a king secure against revolt. | |
| 32 | If you are such a godless fool as to honor yourself, or if you scheme, you had better put your hand over your mouth. | If you have been foolish, exalting yourself, or if you have been devising evil, put your hand on your mouth. | “If you play the fool and exalt yourself, or if you plan evil, clap your hand over your mouth! | |
| 33 | As churning milk produces butter and punching a nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces a fight. | For pressing milk produces curds, pressing the nose produces blood, and pressing anger produces strife. | For as churning cream produces butter, and as twisting the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife.” | |
