2 Thessalonians 3:11 in Context — 2 Thessalonians 3

9 Ce n’est pas que nous n’en eussions le droit, mais nous avons voulu vous donner en nous-mêmes un modèle à imiter.

10 Car, lorsque nous étions chez vous, nous vous disions expressément: Si quelqu’un ne veut pas travailler, qu’il ne mange pas non plus.

11 Nous apprenons, cependant, qu’il y en a parmi vous quelques-uns qui vivent dans le désordre, qui ne travaillent pas, mais qui s’occupent de futilités.

12 Nous invitons ces gens-là, et nous les exhortons par le Seigneur Jésus-Christ, à manger leur propre pain, en travaillant paisiblement.

13 Pour vous, frères, ne vous lassez pas de faire le bien.
