Matthew 5:45 in Context — Matthew 5
43 Vous avez appris qu’il a été dit:Tu aimeras ton prochain, et tu haïras ton ennemi.
44 Mais moi, je vous dis:Aimez vos ennemis, bénissez ceux qui vous maudissent, faites du bien à ceux qui vous haïssent, etpriez pour ceux qui vous maltraitent et qui vous persécutent,
45 afin que vous soyez fils de votre Père qui est dans les cieux; car il fait lever son soleil sur les méchants et sur les bons, et il fait pleuvoir sur les justes et sur les injustes.
46 Si vous aimez ceux qui vous aiment, quelle récompense méritez-vous? Les publicains aussi n’agissent-ils pas de même?
47 Et si vous saluez seulement vos frères, que faites-vous d’extraordinaire? Les païens aussi n’agissent-ils pas de même?
