John 8:53 in Context — John 8
51 En vérité, en vérité, je vous le dis,si quelqu’un garde ma parole, il ne verra jamais la mort.
52 Maintenant, lui dirent les Juifs, nous connaissons que tu as un démon. Abraham est mort, les prophètes aussi, et tu dis: Si quelqu’un garde ma parole, il ne verra jamais la mort.
53 Es-tu plus grand que notre père Abraham, qui est mort? Les prophètes aussi sont morts. Qui prétends-tu être?
54 Jésus répondit: Si je me glorifie moi-même, ma gloire n’est rien. C’est mon Père qui me glorifie, lui que vous dites être votre Dieu,
55 et que vous ne connaissez pas. Pour moi, je le connais; et, si je disais que je ne le connais pas, je serais semblable à vous, un menteur. Mais je le connais, et je garde sa parole.
