Matthew 7:5 in Context — Matthew 7

3 Pourquoi vois-tu la paille qui est dans l’œil de ton frère, et n’aperçois-tu pas la poutre qui est dans ton œil?

4 Ou comment peux-tu dire à ton frère: Laisse-moi ôter une paille de ton œil, toi qui as une poutre dans le tien?

5 Hypocrite, ôte premièrement la poutre de ton œil, et alors tu verras comment ôter la paille de l’œil de ton frère.

6 Ne donnez pas les choses saintes aux chiens, et ne jetez pas vos perles devant les pourceaux, de peur qu’ils ne les foulent aux pieds, ne se retournent et ne vous déchirent.

7 Demandez,et l’on vous donnera; cherchez, et vous trouverez; frappez, et l’on vous ouvrira.
