Proverbs 22:7 in Context — Proverbs 22
5 Des épines, des pièges sont sur la voie de l’homme pervers; Celui qui garde son âme s’en éloigne.
6 Instruis l’enfant selon la voie qu’il doit suivre; Et quand il sera vieux, il ne s’en détournera pas.
7 Le riche domine sur les pauvres, Et celui qui emprunte est l’esclave de celui qui prête.
8 Celui qui sème l’iniquité moissonne l’iniquité, Et la verge de sa fureur disparaît.
9 L’homme dont le regard est bienveillant sera béni, Parce qu’il donne de son pain au pauvre.
