Luke 9:40 in Context — Luke 9
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.
42 Comme il approchait, le démon le jeta par terre, et l’agita avec violence. Mais Jésus menaça l’esprit impur, guérit l’enfant, et le rendit à son père.
