2 Corinthians 4:5 in Context — 2 Corinthians 4
3 Si notre Évangile est encore voilé, il est voilé pour ceux qui périssent;
4 pour les incrédules dont le dieu de ce siècle a aveuglé l’intelligence, afin qu’ils ne vissent pas briller la splendeur de l’Évangile de la gloire de Christ, qui est l’image de Dieu.
5 Nous ne nous prêchons pas nous-mêmes; c’est Jésus-Christ le Seigneur que nous prêchons, et nous nous disons vos serviteurs à cause de Jésus.
6 Car Dieu, qui a dit: La lumière brillera du sein des ténèbres! a fait briller la lumière dans nos cœurs pour faire resplendir la connaissance de la gloire de Dieu sur la face de Christ.
7 Nous portons ce trésor dans des vases de terre, afin que cette grande puissance soit attribuée à Dieu, et non pas à nous.
