Greyhound

Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:

(Prov. 30:31³¹A greyhound; an he goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up. (Proverbs 30:31)). The original implies a “wrestler,” not a quadruped.

Concise Bible Dictionary:

This is literally “girt in the loins,” and reads in the margin “horse” (Prov. 30:31³¹A greyhound; an he goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up. (Proverbs 30:31)). It probably refers to a girded warhorse as something that “goes well,” and is comely or stately in its going.
