Dilara, this is quite an advanced list! Why don't you give us your attempts, and let us (whether Eng or Tksh native speakers) comment on them.

7- Go on all fours ( dört ayak üstünde yürümek, debelenmek )
Dört ayak üstünde yürüyen kanatlı yaratıklar sizin için iğrençtir.
All winged creeping things that go on all fours are an abomination to you. ( From Leviticus )

Also
(Tüm yönleriyle mükemmel olan, like a term in Turkish : dört başı mamur)
The metaphor is taken from a horse, which is lame if only one of its legs is injured. All four must be sound in order that it may go ( for english language ).
