Proverbs 19:11 in Context — Proverbs 19
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.
13 Un fils insensé est une calamité pour son père, Et les querelles d’une femme sont une gouttière sans fin.
