Luke 6:49 in Context — Luke 6
47 Je vous montrerai à qui est semblable tout homme qui vient à moi, entend mes paroles, et les met en pratique.
48 Il est semblable à un homme qui, bâtissant une maison, a creusé, creusé profondément, et a posé le fondement sur le roc. Une inondation est venue, et le torrent s’est jeté contre cette maison, sans pouvoir l’ébranler, parce qu’elle était bien bâtie.
49 Mais celui qui entend, et ne met pas en pratique, est semblable à un homme qui a bâti une maison sur la terre, sans fondement. Le torrent s’est jeté contre elle: aussitôt elle est tombée, et la ruine de cette maison a été grande.
