Luke 5:18 in Context — Luke 5
16 Et lui, il se retirait dans les déserts, et priait.
17 Un jour Jésus enseignait. Des pharisiens et des docteurs de la loi étaient là assis, venus de tous les villages de la Galilée, de la Judée et de Jérusalem; et la puissance du Seigneur se manifestait par des guérisons.
18 Et voici, des gens, portant sur un lit un homme qui était paralytique, cherchaient à le faire entrer et à le placer sous ses regards.
19 Comme ils ne savaient par où l’introduire, à cause de la foule, ils montèrent sur le toit, et ils le descendirent par une ouverture, avec son lit, au milieu de l’assemblée, devant Jésus.
20 Voyant leur foi, Jésus dit: Homme, tes péchés te sont pardonnés.
