Proverbs 27:7 in Context — Proverbs 27
5 Mieux vaut une réprimande ouverte Qu’une amitié cachée.
6 Les blessures d’un ami prouvent sa fidélité, Mais les baisers d’un ennemi sont trompeurs.
7 Celui qui est rassasié foule aux pieds le rayon de miel, Mais celui qui a faim trouve doux tout ce qui est amer.
8 Comme l’oiseau qui erre loin de son nid, Ainsi est l’homme qui erre loin de son lieu.
9 L’huile et les parfums réjouissent le cœur, Et les conseils affectueux d’un ami sont doux.
