Proverbs 5:21 in Context — Proverbs 5
19 Biche des amours, gazelle pleine de grâce: Sois en tout temps enivré de ses charmes, Sans cesse épris de son amour.
20 Et pourquoi, mon fils, serais-tu épris d’une étrangère, Et embrasserais-tu le sein d’une inconnue?
21 Car les voies de l’homme sont devant les yeux de l’Éternel, Qui observe tous ses sentiers.
22 Le méchant est pris dans ses propres iniquités, Il est saisi par les liens de son péché.
23 Il mourra faute d’instruction, Il chancellera par l’excès de sa folie.
