Luke 5:34 in Context — Luke 5
32 Je ne suis pas venu appeler à la repentance des justes, mais des pécheurs.
33 Ils lui dirent: Les disciples de Jean, comme ceux des pharisiens, jeûnent fréquemment et font des prières, tandis que les tiens mangent et boivent.
34 Il leur répondit: Pouvez-vous faire jeûner les amis de l’époux pendant que l’époux est avec eux?
35 Les jours viendront où l’époux leur sera enlevé, alors ils jeûneront en ces jours-là.
36 Il leur dit aussi une parabole: Personne ne déchire d’un habit neuf un morceau pour le mettre à un vieil habit; car, il déchire l’habit neuf, et le morceau qu’il en a pris n’est pas assorti au vieux.
