There are three things which are stately in step,
Even four which are stately in their stride:

The lion, which is mighty among beasts
And does not turn back before any;
31 
The [a]strutting rooster, the male goat also,
And the king when his army is with him.

Even four which are stately when they walk:

And does not [a](B)retreat from anything,
31 The [b]strutting rooster or the male goat,
And a king when his army is with him.
