Proverbs 20:26 in Context — Proverbs 20
24 C’est l’Éternel qui dirige les pas de l’homme, Mais l’homme peut-il comprendre sa voie?
25 C’est un piège pour l’homme que de prendre à la légère un engagement sacré, Et de ne réfléchir qu’après avoir fait un vœu.
26 Un roi sage dissipe les méchants, Et fait passer sur eux la roue.
27 Le souffle de l’homme est une lampe de l’Éternel; Il pénètre jusqu’au fond des entrailles.
28 La bonté et la fidélité gardent le roi, Et il soutient son trône par la bonté.
