Proverbs 7:21 in Context — Proverbs 7
19 Car mon mari n’est pas à la maison, Il est parti pour un voyage lointain;
20 Il a pris avec lui le sac de l’argent, Il ne reviendra à la maison qu’à la nouvelle lune.
21 Elle le séduisit à force de paroles, Elle l’entraîna par ses lèvres doucereuses.
22 Il se mit tout à coup à la suivre, Comme le bœuf qui va à la boucherie, Comme un fou qu’on lie pour le châtier,
23 Jusqu’à ce qu’une flèche lui perce le foie, Comme l’oiseau qui se précipite dans le filet, Sans savoir que c’est au prix de sa vie.
