Proverbs 4:15 in Context — Proverbs 4

13 Retiens l’instruction, ne t’en dessaisis pas; Garde-la, car elle est ta vie.

14 N’entre pas dans le sentier des méchants, Et ne marche pas dans la voie des hommes mauvais.

15 Évite-la, n’y passe point; Détourne-t’en, et passe outre.

16 Car ils ne dormiraient pas s’ils n’avaient fait le mal, Le sommeil leur serait ravi s’ils n’avaient fait tomber personne;

17 Car c’est le pain de la méchanceté qu’ils mangent, C’est le vin de la violence qu’ils boivent.
