Proverbs 10:11
French (La Sainte Bible par Louis Segond 1910)
Que signifie ce verset ?
This verse from the book of Proverbs tells us that the words of a righteous person are full of life and positivity, like a well that gives fresh water. On the other hand, a wicked person’s words are filled with violence and negativity. King Solomon, known for his wisdom, wrote this to encourage people to speak positively and avoid harmful speech.
Expliqué aux enfants
Imagine a well that gives you the best water to drink. That's like the words a good person says—they make you feel good and give you strength. But if someone is mean and always says bad things, it's like that well is full of yucky water you don't want to drink. So, try to be the one who gives good water!
