Deuteronomy 22:2 in Context — Deuteronomy 22

1 Si tu vois s’égarer le bœuf ou la brebis de ton frère, tu ne t’en détourneras point, tu les ramèneras à ton frère.

2 Si ton frère n’habite pas près de toi, et que tu ne le connaisses pas, tu recueilleras l’animal dans ta maison et il restera chez toi jusqu’à ce que ton frère le réclame; et alors tu le lui rendras.

3 Tu feras de même pour son âne, tu feras de même pour son vêtement, tu feras de même pour tout objet qu’il aurait perdu et que tu trouverais; tu ne devras point t’en détourner.

4 Si tu vois l’âne de ton frère ou son bœuf tombé dans le chemin, tu ne t’en détourneras point, tu l’aideras à le relever.
