Proverbs 3:13 in Context — Proverbs 3

11 Mon fils, ne méprise pas la correction de l’Éternel, Et ne t’effraie point de ses châtiments;

12 Car l’Éternel châtie celui qu’il aime, Comme un père l’enfant qu’il chérit.

13 Heureux l’homme qui a trouvé la sagesse, Et l’homme qui possède l’intelligence!

14 Car le gain qu’elle procure est préférable à celui de l’argent, Et le profit qu’on en tire vaut mieux que l’or;

15 Elle est plus précieuse que les perles, Elle a plus de valeur que tous les objets de prix.
