Matthew 6:5 in Context — Matthew 6
3 Mais quand tu fais l’aumône, que ta main gauche ne sache pas ce que fait ta droite,
4 afin que ton aumône se fasse en secret; et ton Père, qui voit dans le secret, te lerendra.
5 Lorsque vous priez, ne soyez pas comme les hypocrites, qui aiment à prier debout dans les synagogues et aux coins des rues, pour être vus des hommes. Je vous le dis en vérité, ils reçoivent leur récompense.
6 Mais quand tu pries,entre dans ta chambre, ferme ta porte, et prie ton Père qui est là dans le lieu secret; et ton Père, qui voit dans le secret, te le rendra.
7 En priant,ne multipliez pas de vaines paroles, comme les païens, qui s’imaginent qu’à force de paroles ils seront exaucés.
