Luke 23:27 in Context — Luke 23

25 Il relâcha celui qui avait été mis en prison pour sédition et pour meurtre, et qu’ils réclamaient; et il livra Jésus à leur volonté.

26 Comme ils l’emmenaient, ils prirent un certain Simon de Cyrène, qui revenait des champs, et ils le chargèrent de la croix, pour qu’il la porte derrière Jésus.

27 Il était suivi d’une grande multitude des gens du peuple, et de femmes qui se frappaient la poitrine et se lamentaient sur lui.

28 Jésus se tourna vers elles, et dit: Filles de Jérusalem, ne pleurez pas sur moi; mais pleurez sur vous et sur vos enfants.

29 Car voici, des jours viendront où l’on dira: Heureuses les stériles, heureuses les entrailles qui n’ont point enfanté, et les mamelles qui n’ont point allaité!
