Proverbs 12:14 in Context — Proverbs 12
12 Le méchant convoite ce que prennent les méchants, Mais la racine des justes donne du fruit.
13 Il y a dans le péché des lèvres un piège pernicieux, Mais le juste se tire de la détresse.
14 Par le fruit de la bouche on est rassasié de biens, Et chacun reçoit selon l’œuvre de ses mains.
15 La voie de l’insensé est droite à ses yeux, Mais celui qui écoute les conseils est sage.
16 L’insensé laisse voir à l’instant sa colère, Mais celui qui cache un outrage est un homme prudent.
