Proverbs 28:26 in Context — Proverbs 28

24 Celui qui vole son père et sa mère, Et qui dit: Ce n’est pas un péché! Est le compagnon du destructeur.

25 L’orgueilleux excite les querelles, Mais celui qui se confie en l’Éternel est rassasié.

26 Celui qui a confiance dans son propre cœur est un insensé, Mais celui qui marche dans la sagesse sera sauvé.

27 Celui qui donne au pauvre n’éprouve pas la disette, Mais celui qui ferme les yeux est chargé de malédictions.

28 Quand les méchants s’élèvent, chacun se cache; Et quand ils périssent, les justes se multiplient.
