Proverbs 30:29 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 30:29

There be three [things] which go well
In a very orderly and composed manner; with constancy and cheerfulness, with great stateliness and majesty, intrepidly, and without fear; yea, four are comely in going;
very beautiful and lovely to look at as they walk.

Proverbs 30:29 In-Context

27 The locusts have no king, Yet all of them go out in ranks;
28 The lizard you may grasp with the hands, Yet it is in kings' palaces.
29 There are three things which are stately in their march, Even four which are stately when they walk:
30 The lion which is mighty among beasts And does not retreat before any,
31 The strutting rooster, the male goat also, And a king when his army is with him.
