Proverbs 30:24

24 There are four things on earth that are small, ^{▼▼ Heb “Four are the small things of the earth.” TEV has “four animals,” though in the list of four that follows, two are insects and one is a reptile.}
but they are exceedingly wise: ^{▼▼ The construction uses the Pual participle with the plural adjective as an intensive; these four creatures are the very embodiment of wisdom (BDB 314 s.v. חָכַם Pu).}
