Proverbs 15:10 in Context — Proverbs 15

8 Le sacrifice des méchants est en horreur à l’Éternel, Mais la prière des hommes droits lui est agréable.

9 La voie du méchant est en horreur à l’Éternel, Mais il aime celui qui poursuit la justice.

10 Une correction sévère menace celui qui abandonne le sentier; Celui qui hait la réprimande mourra.

11 Le séjour des morts et l’abîme sont devant l’Éternel; Combien plus les cœurs des fils de l’homme!

12 Le moqueur n’aime pas qu’on le reprenne, Il ne va point vers les sages.
