21 Under three things the earth[a] trembles,
and under four, it is not able to bear up:

and a maid when she succeeds her mistress.

Proverbs 30:29-33
Lexham English Bible
29 There are three things that are magnificent of stride,
and four that are magnificent when moving:
30 a mighty lion among the beasts,[a]
but he will not turn back from any face;[b]
31 a strutting rooster or he-goat,
and a king whose army is with him.
32 If you have been foolish by exalting yourself,
and if you have devised evil, put your hand to your mouth.
33 For pressing milk produces curd,
and pressing the nose produces blood,
so pressing anger[c] produces strife.

and a king at the head of his army.[b]
32 If you have been foolish by exalting yourself
or if you’ve been scheming,
put your hand over your mouth.(A)

and stirring up anger produces strife.(B)
