Matthew 12:44 in Context — Matthew 12
42 La reine du Midi se lèvera, au jour du jugement, avec cette génération et la condamnera, parce qu’elle vint des extrémités de la terre pour entendre la sagesse de Salomon, et voici, il y a ici plus que Salomon.
43 Lorsque l’esprit impur est sorti d’un homme, il va par des lieux arides, cherchant du repos, et il n’en trouve point.
44 Alors il dit: Je retournerai dans ma maison d’où je suis sorti; et, quand il arrive, il la trouve vide, balayée et ornée.
45 Il s’en va, et il prend avec lui sept autres esprits plus méchants que lui;ils entrent dans la maison, s’y établissent, et la dernière condition de cet homme est pire que la première. Il en sera de même pour cette génération méchante.
46 Comme Jésus s’adressait encore à la foule, voici, sa mère et ses frères, qui étaient dehors, cherchèrent à lui parler.
