Deuteronomy 6:21 in Context — Deuteronomy 6

19 après qu’il aura chassé tous tes ennemis devant toi, comme l’Éternel l’a dit.

20 Lorsque ton fils te demandera un jour: Que signifient ces préceptes, ces lois et ces ordonnances, que l’Éternel, notre Dieu, vous a prescrits?

21 tu diras à ton fils: Nous étions esclaves de Pharaon en Égypte, et l’Éternel nous a fait sortir de l’Égypte par sa main puissante.

22 L’Éternel a opéré, sous nos yeux, des miracles et des prodiges, grands et désastreux, contre l’Égypte, contre Pharaon et contre toute sa maison;

23 et il nous a fait sortir de là, pour nous amener dans le pays qu’il avait juré à nos pères de nous donner.
