In context
1 Un fils sage écoute l’instruction de son père, Mais le moqueur n’écoute pas la réprimande.
2 Par le fruit de la bouche on jouit du bien; Mais ce que désirent les perfides, c’est la violence.
3 Celui qui veille sur sa bouche garde son âme; Celui qui ouvre de grandes lèvres court à sa perte.
4 L’âme du paresseux a des désirs qu’il ne peut satisfaire; Mais l’âme des hommes diligents sera rassasiée.
5 Le juste hait les paroles mensongères; Le méchant se rend odieux et se couvre de honte.
6 La justice garde celui dont la voie est intègre, Mais la méchanceté cause la ruine du pécheur.
