Proverbs 25:18 in Context — Proverbs 25
16 Si tu trouves du miel, n’en mange que ce qui te suffit, De peur que tu n’en sois rassasié et que tu ne le vomisses.
17 Mets rarement le pied dans la maison de ton prochain, De peur qu’il ne soit rassasié de toi et qu’il ne te haïsse.
18 Comme une massue, une épée et une flèche aiguë, Ainsi est un homme qui porte un faux témoignage contre son prochain.
19 Comme une dent cassée et un pied qui chancelle, Ainsi est la confiance en un perfide au jour de la détresse.
20 Oter son vêtement dans un jour froid, Répandre du vinaigre sur du nitre, C’est dire des chansons à un cœur attristé.
