Proverbs 1:12 in Context — Proverbs 1
10 Mon fils, si des pécheurs veulent te séduire, Ne te laisse pas gagner.
11 S’ils disent: Viens avec nous! Dressons des embûches, versons du sang, Tendons des pièges à celui qui se repose en vain sur son innocence,
12 Engloutissons-les tout vifs, comme le séjour des morts, Et tout entiers, comme ceux qui descendent dans la fosse;
13 Nous trouverons toute sorte de biens précieux, Nous remplirons de butin nos maisons;
14 Tu auras ta part avec nous, Il n’y aura qu’une bourse pour nous tous!
