Proverbs 3:14 in Context — Proverbs 3
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.
16 Dans sa droite est une longue vie; Dans sa gauche, la richesse et la gloire.
