Matthew 5:13 in Context — Matthew 5
11 Heureux serez-vous, lorsqu’on vous outragera, qu’on vous persécutera et qu’on dira faussement de vous toute sorte de mal,à cause de moi.
12 Réjouissez-vous et soyez dans l’allégresse, parce que votre récompense sera grande dans les cieux; car c’est ainsi qu’on a persécuté les prophètes qui ont été avant vous.
13 Vous êtes le sel de la terre. Mais si le sel perd sa saveur, avec quoi la lui rendra-t-on? Il ne sert plus qu’à être jeté dehors, et foulé aux pieds par les hommes.
14 Vous êtes la lumière du monde. Une ville située sur une montagne ne peut être cachée;
15 eton n’allume pas une lampe pour la mettre sous le boisseau, mais on la met sur le chandelier, et elle éclaire tous ceux qui sont dans la maison.
