30 Parce qu’ils n’ont point aimé mes conseils, Et qu’ils ont dédaigné toutes mes réprimandes,
31 Ils se nourriront du fruit de leur voie, Et ils se rassasieront de leurs propres conseils,
32 Car la résistance des stupides les tue, Et la sécurité des insensés les perd;
33 Mais celui qui m’écoute reposera avec assurance, Il vivra tranquille et sans craindre aucun mal.
