Proverbs 8:3 in Context — Proverbs 8

1 La sagesse ne crie-t-elle pas? L’intelligence n’élève-t-elle pas sa voix?

2 C’est au sommet des hauteurs près de la route, C’est à la croisée des chemins qu’elle se place;

3 A côté des portes, à l’entrée de la ville, A l’intérieur des portes, elle fait entendre ses cris:

4 Hommes, c’est à vous que je crie, Et ma voix s’adresse aux fils de l’homme.

5 Stupides, apprenez le discernement; Insensés, apprenez l’intelligence.
