Proverbs 30:17

¹⁵ The leech has two daughters: Give and Give. There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, ‘Enough!’:

¹⁶ Sheol, the barren womb, land never satisfied with water, and fire that never says, ‘Enough!’

As for the eye that mocks a father and scorns obedience to a mother, may the ravens of the valley pluck it out and young vultures devour it.

¹⁸ There are three things too wonderful for me, four that I cannot understand:

¹⁹ the way of an eagle in the sky, the way of a snake on a rock, the way of a ship at sea, and the way of a man with a maiden.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
