Proverbs 19:14 in Context — Proverbs 19
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.
14 On peut hériter de ses pères une maison et des richesses, Mais une femme intelligente est un don de l’Éternel.
15 La paresse fait tomber dans l’assoupissement, Et l’âme nonchalante éprouve la faim.
16 Celui qui garde ce qui est commandé garde son âme; Celui qui ne veille pas sur sa voie mourra.
