Proverbs 10:29 in Context — Proverbs 10

27 La crainte de l’Éternel augmente les jours, Mais les années des méchants sont abrégées.

28 L’attente des justes n’est que joie, Mais l’espérance des méchants périra.

29 La voie de l’Éternel est un rempart pour l’intégrité, Mais elle est une ruine pour ceux qui font le mal.

30 Le juste ne chancellera jamais, Mais les méchants n’habiteront pas le pays.

31 La bouche du juste produit la sagesse, Mais la langue perverse sera retranchée.
