Luke 23:29 in Context — Luke 23
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!
30 Alors ils se mettront à dire aux montagnes:Tombez sur nous! Et aux collines: Couvrez-nous!
31 Car, si l’on fait ces choses au bois vert, qu’arrivera-t-il au bois sec?
