13 Mon fils, mange du miel, car il est bon; Un rayon de miel sera doux à ton palais.
14 De même, connais la sagesse pour ton âme; Si tu la trouves, il est un avenir, Et ton espérance ne sera pas anéantie.
15 Ne tends pas méchamment des embûches à la demeure du juste, Et ne dévaste pas le lieu où il repose;
16 Car sept fois le juste tombe, et il se relève, Mais les méchants sont précipités dans le malheur.
17 Ne te réjouis pas de la chute de ton ennemi, Et que ton cœur ne soit pas dans l’allégresse quand il chancelle,
