11 Les lionceaux éprouvent la disette et la faim, Mais ceux qui cherchent l’Éternel ne sont privés d’aucun bien.

12 Venez, mes fils, écoutez-moi! Je vous enseignerai la crainte de l’Éternel.

13 Quel est l’homme qui aime la vie, Qui désire la prolonger pour jouir du bonheur?

14 Préserve ta langue du mal, Et tes lèvres des paroles trompeuses;

15 Éloigne-toi du mal, et fais le bien; Recherche et poursuis la paix.
