Matthew 6:28 in Context — Matthew 6
26 Regardez les oiseaux du ciel: ils ne sèment ni ne moissonnent, et ils n’amassent rien dans des greniers; et votre Père céleste les nourrit. Ne valez-vous pas beaucoup plus qu’eux?
27 Qui de vous, par ses inquiétudes, peut ajouter une coudée à la durée de sa vie?
28 Et pourquoi vous inquiéter au sujet du vêtement? Considérez comment croissent les lis des champs: ils ne travaillent ni ne filent;
29 cependant je vous dis que Salomon même, dans toute sa gloire, n’a pas été vêtu comme l’un d’eux.
30 Si Dieu revêt ainsi l’herbe des champs, qui existe aujourd’hui et qui demain sera jetée au four, ne vous vêtira-t-il pas à plus forte raison, gens de peu de foi?
