Proverbs 30:4 in Context — Proverbs 30
2 Certes, je suis plus stupide que personne, Et je n’ai pas l’intelligence d’un homme;
3 Je n’ai pas appris la sagesse, Et je ne connais pas la science des saints.
4 Qui est monté aux cieux, et qui en est descendu? Qui a recueilli le vent dans ses mains? Qui a serré les eaux dans son vêtement? Qui a fait paraître les extrémités de la terre? Quel est son nom, et quel est le nom de son fils? Le sais-tu?
5 Toute parole de Dieu est éprouvée. Il est un bouclier pour ceux qui cherchent en lui un refuge.
6 N’ajoute rien à ses paroles, De peur qu’il ne te reprenne et que tu ne sois trouvé menteur.
