In context

17 The eye that mocketh a father, and despiseth to obey a mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young of the eagle shall eat it.

18 Three, things there are, too difficult for me, yea, four, which I do not understand:

19 The way of an eagle in the heavens, the way of a serpent on the rock,—the way of a ship in the heart of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid.

20 So, is the way of a woman committing adultery,—she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no iniquity!

21 Under three things, a land is stirred, yea, under four, she cannot bear up:

22 Under a servant, when he reigneth, and a base man, when he is surfeited with food;

23 Under a hateful woman, when she is married, and a handmaid when she driveth out her mistress.
