Matthew 26:51 in Context — Matthew 26
49 Aussitôt, s’approchant de Jésus, il dit: Salut, Rabbi! Et il le baisa.
50 Jésus lui dit: Mon ami, ce que tu es venu faire, fais-le. Alors ces gens s’avancèrent, mirent la main sur Jésus, et le saisirent.
51 Et voici, un de ceux qui étaient avec Jésus étendit la main, et tira son épée; il frappa le serviteur du souverain sacrificateur, et lui emporta l’oreille.
52 Alors Jésus lui dit: Remets ton épée à sa place;car tous ceux qui prendront l’épée périront par l’épée.
53 Penses-tu que je ne puisse pas invoquer mon Père, qui me donnerait à l’instant plus de douze légions d’anges?
