John 18:21 in Context — John 18
19 Le souverain sacrificateur interrogea Jésus sur ses disciples et sur sa doctrine.
20 Jésus lui répondit: J’ai parlé ouvertement au monde; j’ai toujours enseigné dans la synagogue et dans le temple, où tous les Juifs s’assemblent, et je n’ai rien dit en secret.
21 Pourquoi m’interroges-tu? Interroge sur ce que je leur ai dit ceux qui m’ont entendu; voici, ceux-là savent ce que j’ai dit.
22 A ces mots, un des huissiers, qui se trouvait là, donna un soufflet à Jésus, en disant: Est-ce ainsi que tu réponds au souverain sacrificateur?
23 Jésus lui dit: Si j’ai mal parlé, fais voir ce que j’ai dit de mal; et si j’ai bien parlé, pourquoi me frappes-tu?
