Proverbs 22:14 in Context — Proverbs 22
12 Les yeux de l’Éternel gardent la science, Mais il confond les paroles du perfide.
13 Le paresseux dit: Il y a un lion dehors! Je serai tué dans les rues!
14 La bouche des étrangères est une fosse profonde; Celui contre qui l’Éternel est irrité y tombera.
15 La folie est attachée au cœur de l’enfant; La verge de la correction l’éloignera de lui.
16 Opprimer le pauvre pour augmenter son bien, C’est donner au riche pour n’arriver qu’à la disette.
