Proverbs regarding lessons to be learnt from God's creation

  1. There are four things on earth that are small, but they are exceedingly wise:
    ants are creatures with little strength, but they prepare their food in the summer;
    rock badgers are creatures with little power, but they make their homes in the crags;
    locusts have no king, but they all go forward by ranks;
    a lizard you can catch with the hand, but it gets into the palaces of the king.
    There are three things that are magnificent in their step, four things that move about magnificently:
    a lion, mightiest of the beasts, who does not retreat from anything;
    a strutting rooster, a male goat, and a king with his army around him.
    If you have done foolishly by exalting yourself or if you have planned evil, put your hand over your mouth!
    For as the churning of milk produces butter and as punching the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife.

    Prov. 30:24-33 (read whole chapter)
