King James Bible	La Bible des Peuples
¹ The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.	¹ Le malfaiteur fuit quand personne ne le poursuit, le juste par contre va comme un lion, plein d’assurance.
² For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.	² Les erreurs d’un violent mettent le monde en effervescence, avec un homme intelligent le calme revient.
³ A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.	³ L’homme mauvais qui exploite les pauvres est comme la pluie dévastatrice: on reste sans pain.
⁴ They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.	⁴ Après avoir abandonné la Loi on approuve le méchant, ceux qui observent la Loi s’indignent contre lui.
⁵ Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.	⁵ Les mauvais n’entendent rien à la morale, ceux qui cherchent Yahvé comprennent tout.
⁶ Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.	⁶ Mieux vaut un pauvre qui vit honnêtement, qu’un arriviste qui s’est fait riche.
⁷ Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.	⁷ Un garçon intelligent observe la Loi, celui qui fréquente les débauchés est la honte de son père.
⁸ He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.	⁸ Les intérêts et l’usure lui ont permis d’arrondir sa fortune: il a amassé pour celui qui a pitié des pauvres.
⁹ He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.	⁹ Celui qui refuse d’écouter la Loi, même sa prière est abominable.
¹⁰ Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.	¹⁰ Si quelqu’un pousse les honnêtes gens hors du chemin, c’est lui qui tombera dans le fossé.
¹¹ The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.	¹¹ L’homme riche s’imagine être sage, mais le pauvre de bon sens ne s’y trompe pas.
¹² When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.	¹² Quand les justes triomphent, la joie est grande; quand les méchants l’emportent, chacun se cache.
¹³ He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.	¹³ Cacher ses fautes ne mène à rien, les reconnaître et y renoncer les fait pardonner.
¹⁴ Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.	¹⁴ Heureux celui qui jamais ne perd la crainte: qui endurcit sa conscience tombera dans le malheur.
¹⁵ As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over the poor people.	¹⁵ Un lion rugissant, un ours affamé, tel est le méchant qui domine sur le pauvre peuple.
¹⁶ The prince that wanteth understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.	¹⁶ Moins le chef est intelligent, plus il est oppresseur: qui déteste les abus restera longtemps.
¹⁷ A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him.	¹⁷ C’est un violent qui a versé le sang, ne l’arrêtez pas: jusqu’à sa mort il fuira!
¹⁸ Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.	¹⁸ Qui marche sans reproche se sauvera, qui mène un double jeu s’y perdra.
¹⁹ He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.	¹⁹ Cultive ton champ, tu auras ton content de pain; poursuis des illusions, tu auras ton compte de privations.
²⁰ A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.	²⁰ Celui qui est consciencieux, les succès ne lui feront pas défaut, celui qui veut s’enrichir vite ne saurait être innocent.
²¹ To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.	²¹ On devrait être impartial, mais certains se vendent pour une bouchée de pain.
²² He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.	²² L’homme intéressé court après la richesse, et il ne sait pas que la misère l’attend.
²³ He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.	²³ Celui qui remet en place sera un jour plus apprécié que celui qui veut plaire.
²⁴ Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer.	²⁴ Qui prend à son père en disant: “Ce n’est pas grave!” n’est qu’un brigand parmi d’autres.
²⁵ He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.	²⁵ L’homme cupide ne gagne que des querelles, qui met sa confiance dans Yahvé réussira.
²⁶ He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.	²⁶ Celui qui ne croit qu’à ses idées est un imbécile, qui agit avec sagesse s’en tirera.
²⁷ He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.	²⁷ Qui donne au pauvre ne manquera de rien, qui préfère ne pas le voir aura toutes les malédictions.
²⁸ When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase.	²⁸ Quand les méchants l’emportent, chacun se cache; quand ils sont éliminés, les justes se multiplient.
