Matthew 10:27 in Context — Matthew 10

25 Il suffit au disciple d’être traité comme son maître, et au serviteur comme son seigneur.S’ils ont appelé le maître de la maison Béelzébul, à combien plus forte raison appelleront-ils ainsi les gens de sa maison!

26 Ne les craignez donc point;car il n’y a rien de caché qui ne doive être découvert, ni de secret qui ne doive être connu.

27 Ce que je vous dis dans les ténèbres, dites-le en plein jour; et ce qui vous est dit à l’oreille, prêchez-le sur les toits.

28 Ne craignez pas ceux qui tuent le corps et qui ne peuvent tuer l’âme; craignez plutôt celui qui peut faire périr l’âme et le corps dans la géhenne.

29 Ne vend-on pas deux passereaux pour un sou? Cependant, il n’en tombe pas un à terre sans la volonté de votre Père.
