Proverbs 14:17 in Context — Proverbs 14
15 L’homme simple croit tout ce qu’on dit, Mais l’homme prudent est attentif à ses pas.
16 Le sage a de la retenue et se détourne du mal, Mais l’insensé est arrogant et plein de sécurité.
17 Celui qui est prompt à la colère fait des sottises, Et l’homme plein de malice s’attire la haine.
18 Les simples ont en partage la folie, Et les hommes prudents se font de la science une couronne.
19 Les mauvais s’inclinent devant les bons, Et les méchants aux portes du juste.
