Job 12:6 in Context — Job 12

4 Je suis pour mes amis un objet de raillerie, Quand j’implore le secours de Dieu; Le juste, l’innocent, un objet de raillerie!

5 Au malheur le mépris! C’est la devise des heureux; A celui dont le pied chancelle est réservé le mépris.

6 Il y a paix sous la tente des pillards, Sécurité pour ceux qui offensent Dieu, Pour quiconque se fait un dieu de sa force.

7 Interroge les bêtes, elles t’instruiront, Les oiseaux du ciel, ils te l’apprendront;

8 Parle à la terre, elle t’instruira; Et les poissons de la mer te le raconteront.
