Proverbs 11:21 in Context — Proverbs 11
19 Ainsi la justice conduit à la vie, Mais celui qui poursuit le mal trouve la mort.
20 Ceux qui ont le cœur pervers sont en abomination à l’Éternel, Mais ceux dont la voie est intègre lui sont agréables.
21 Certes, le méchant ne restera pas impuni, Mais la postérité des justes sera sauvée.
22 Un anneau d’or au nez d’un pourceau, C’est une femme belle et dépourvue de sens.
23 Le désir des justes, c’est seulement le bien; L’attente des méchants, c’est la fureur.
