Proverbs 19:10 in Context — Proverbs 19
8 Celui qui acquiert du sens aime son âme; Celui qui garde l’intelligence trouve le bonheur.
9 Le faux témoin ne restera pas impuni, Et celui qui dit des mensonges périra.
10 Il ne sied pas à un insensé de vivre dans les délices; Combien moins à un esclave de dominer sur des princes!
11 L’homme qui a de la sagesse est lent à la colère, Et il met sa gloire à oublier les offenses.
12 La colère du roi est comme le rugissement d’un lion, Et sa faveur est comme la rosée sur l’herbe.
