Luke 11:46 in Context — Luke 11
44 Malheur à vous! Parce que vous êtes comme les sépulcres qui ne paraissent pas, et sur lesquels on marche sans le savoir.
45 Un des docteurs de la loi prit la parole, et lui dit: Maître, en parlant de la sorte, c’est aussi nous que tu outrages.
46 Et Jésus répondit: Malheur à vous aussi, docteurs de la loi! Parce que vous chargez les hommes de fardeaux difficiles à porter, et que vous ne touchez pas vous-mêmes de l’un de vos doigts.
47 Malheur à vous! Parce que vous bâtissez les tombeaux des prophètes, que vos pères ont tués.
48 Vous rendez donc témoignage aux œuvres de vos pères, et vous les approuvez; car eux, ils ont tué les prophètes, et vous, vous bâtissez leurs tombeaux.
