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 march in rank;
28 the lizard you can take in your hands, yet it is in kings' palaces.
29 Three things are stately in their tread; four are stately in their stride:
30 the lion, which is mightiest among beasts and does not turn back before any;
31 the strutting cock, the he-goat, and a king striding before his people.
