Via Dei, le chemin de Dieu

«Je suis le chemin, la vérité, et la vie. Nul ne vient au Père que par moi.»
Jean 14:6
1 A man who hardens [his] neck after much reproof Will suddenly be broken beyond remedy.

2 When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, But when a wicked man rules, people groan.

3 A man who loves wisdom makes his father glad, But he who keeps company with harlots wastes [his] wealth.

4 The king gives stability to the land by justice, But a man who takes bribes overthrows it.

5 A man who flatters his neighbor Is spreading a net for his steps.

6 By transgression an evil man is ensnared, But the righteous sings and rejoices.

7 The righteous is concerned for the rights of the poor, The wicked does not understand [such] concern.

8 Scorners set a city aflame, But wise men turn away anger.

9 When a wise man has a controversy with a foolish man, The foolish man either rages or laughs, and there is no rest.

10 Men of bloodshed hate the blameless, But the upright are concerned for his life.

11 A fool always loses his temper, But a wise man holds it back.

12 If a ruler pays attention to falsehood, All his ministers [become] wicked.

13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives light to the eyes of both.

14 If a king judges the poor with truth, His throne will be established forever.

15 The rod and reproof give wisdom, But a child who gets his own way brings shame to his mother.

16 When the wicked increase, transgression increases; But the righteous will see their fall.

17 Correct your son, and he will give you comfort; He will also delight your soul.

18 Where there is no vision, the people are unrestrained, But happy is he who keeps the law.

19 A slave will not be instructed by words [alone]; For though he understands, there will be no response.

20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

21 He who pampers his slave from childhood Will in the end find him to be a son.

22 An angry man stirs up strife, And a hot-tempered man abounds in transgression.

23 A man's pride will bring him low, But a humble spirit will obtain honor.

24 He who is a partner with a thief hates his own life; He hears the oath but tells nothing.

25 The fear of man brings a snare, But he who trusts in the LORD will be exalted.

26 Many seek the ruler's favor, But justice for man [comes] from the LORD.

27 An unjust man is abominable to the righteous, And he who is upright in the way is abominable to the wicked.
