| 24 | There are four things on earth that are small but unusually wise: | Four things on earth are small, but they are exceedingly wise: | “Four things on earth are small, yet they are extremely wise: | |
| 25 | Ants—they aren’t strong, but they store up food all summer. | the ants are a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer; | Ants are creatures of little strength, yet they store up their food in the summer; | |
| 26 | Hyraxes—they aren’t powerful, but they make their homes among the rocks. | the rock badgers are a people not mighty, yet they make their homes in the cliffs; | hyraxes are creatures of little power, yet they make their home in the crags; | |
| 27 | Locusts—they have no king, but they march in formation. | the locusts have no king, yet all of them march in rank; | locusts have no king, yet they advance together in ranks; | |
| 28 | Lizards—they are easy to catch, but they are found even in kings’ palaces. | the lizard you can take in your hands, yet it is in kings’ palaces. | a lizard can be caught with the hand, yet it is found in kings’ palaces. | |
