Proverbs 22:27 in Context — Proverbs 22
25 De peur que tu ne t’habitues à ses sentiers, Et qu’ils ne deviennent un piège pour ton âme.
26 Ne sois pas parmi ceux qui prennent des engagements, Parmi ceux qui cautionnent pour des dettes;
27 Si tu n’as pas de quoi payer, Pourquoi voudrais-tu qu’on enlève ton lit de dessous toi?
28 Ne déplace pas la borne ancienne, Que tes pères ont posée.
29 Si tu vois un homme habile dans son ouvrage, Il se tient auprès des rois; Il ne se tient pas auprès des gens obscurs.
