Proverbs 19:23 in Context — Proverbs 19
21 Il y a dans le cœur de l’homme beaucoup de projets, Mais c’est le dessein de l’Éternel qui s’accomplit.
22 Ce qui fait le charme d’un homme, c’est sa bonté; Et mieux vaut un pauvre qu’un menteur.
23 La crainte de l’Éternel mène à la vie, Et l’on passe la nuit rassasié, sans être visité par le malheur.
24 Le paresseux plonge sa main dans le plat, Et il ne la ramène pas à sa bouche.
25 Frappe le moqueur, et le sot deviendra sage; Reprends l’homme intelligent, et il comprendra la science.
