Proverbs 26:14 in Context — Proverbs 26
12 Si tu vois un homme qui se croit sage, Il y a plus à espérer d’un insensé que de lui.
13 Le paresseux dit: Il y a un lion sur le chemin, Il y a un lion dans les rues!
14 La porte tourne sur ses gonds, Et le paresseux sur son lit.
15 Le paresseux plonge sa main dans le plat, Et il trouve pénible de la ramener à sa bouche.
16 Le paresseux se croit plus sage Que sept hommes qui répondent avec bon sens.
