Luke 9:39 in Context — Luke 9

37 Le lendemain, lorsqu’ils furent descendus de la montagne, une grande foule vint au-devant de Jésus.

38 Et voici, du milieu de la foule un homme s’écria: Maître, je t’en prie, porte les regards sur mon fils, car c’est mon fils unique.

39 Un esprit le saisit, et aussitôt il pousse des cris; et l’esprit l’agite avec violence, le fait écumer, et a de la peine à se retirer de lui, après l’avoir tout brisé.

40 J’ai prié tes disciples de le chasser, et ils n’ont pas pu.

41 Race incrédule et perverse, répondit Jésus, jusqu’à quand serai-je avec vous, et vous supporterai-je? Amène ici ton fils.
