1 Thessalonians 2:18 in Context — 1 Thessalonians 2
16 nous empêchant de parler aux païens pour qu’ils soient sauvés, en sorte qu’ils ne cessent de mettre le comble à leurs péchés. Mais la colère a fini par les atteindre.
17 Pour nous, frères, après avoir été quelque temps séparés de vous, de corps mais non de cœur, nous avons eu d’autant plus ardemment le vif désir de vous voir.
18 Aussi voulions-nous aller vers vous, du moins moi Paul, une et même deux fois; mais Satan nous en a empêchés.
19 Qui est, en effet, notre espérance, ou notre joie, ou notre couronne de gloire? N’est-ce pas vous aussi, devant notre Seigneur Jésus, lors de son avènement?
20 Oui, vous êtes notre gloire et notre joie.
