Proverbs 21:14 in Context — Proverbs 21
12 Le juste considère la maison du méchant; L’Éternel précipite les méchants dans le malheur.
13 Celui qui ferme son oreille au cri du pauvre Criera lui-même et n’aura point de réponse.
14 Un don fait en secret apaise la colère, Et un présent fait en cachette calme une fureur violente.
15 C’est une joie pour le juste de pratiquer la justice, Mais la ruine est pour ceux qui font le mal.
16 L’homme qui s’écarte du chemin de la sagesse Reposera dans l’assemblée des morts.
