Proverbs 30:21 in Context — Proverbs 30

19 El rastro del águila en el aire; el rastro de la culebra sobre la peña; el rastro de la nave en medio de la mar; y el rastro del hombre en la moza.

20 Tal es el rastro de la mujer adúltera: come, y limpia su boca, y dice: No he hecho maldad.

21 Por tres cosas se alborota la tierra, y la cuarta no puede sufrir:

22 Por el siervo cuando reinare; y por el necio cuando se hartare de pan;

23 Por la aborrecida cuando se casare; y por la sierva cuando heredare á su señora.
