Luke 4:20 in Context — Luke 4
18 L’Esprit du Seigneur est sur moi, Parce qu’il m’a ointpour annoncer une bonne nouvelle aux pauvres; Il m’a envoyé pour guérir ceux qui ont le cœur brisé, Pour proclamer aux captifs la délivrance, Et aux aveugles le recouvrement de la vue, Pour renvoyer libres les opprimés,
19 Pour publier une année de grâce du Seigneur.
20 Ensuite, il roula le livre, le remit au serviteur, et s’assit. Tous ceux qui se trouvaient dans la synagogue avaient les regards fixés sur lui.
21 Alors il commença à leur dire: Aujourd’hui cette parole de l’Écriture, que vous venez d’entendre, est accomplie.
22 Et tous lui rendaient témoignage; ils étaient étonnés des paroles de grâce qui sortaient de sa bouche, et ils disaient: N’est-ce pas le fils de Joseph?
