Proverbs 25:9 in Context — Proverbs 25
7 Car il vaut mieux qu’on te dise: Monte-ici! Que si l’on t’abaisse devant le prince que tes yeux voient.
8 Ne te hâte pas d’entrer en contestation, De peur qu’à la fin tu ne saches que faire, Lorsque ton prochain t’aura outragé.
9 Défends ta cause contre ton prochain, Mais ne révèle pas le secret d’un autre,
10 De peur qu’en l’apprenant il ne te couvre de honte, Et que ta mauvaise renommée ne s’efface pas.
11 Comme des pommes d’or sur des ciselures d’argent, Ainsi est une parole dite à propos.
