Proverbs 11:10 in Context — Proverbs 11

8 Le juste est délivré de la détresse, Et le méchant prend sa place.

9 Par sa bouche l’impie perd son prochain, Mais les justes sont délivrés par la science.

10 Quand les justes sont heureux, la ville est dans la joie; Et quand les méchants périssent, on pousse des cris d’allégresse.

11 La ville s’élève par la bénédiction des hommes droits, Mais elle est renversée par la bouche des méchants.

12 Celui qui méprise son prochain est dépourvu de sens, Mais l’homme qui a de l’intelligence se tait.
