18 Jésus, voyant une grande foule autour de lui, donna l’ordre de passer à l’autre bord.
19 Un scribe s’approcha, et lui dit: Maître, je te suivrai partout où tu iras.
20 Jésus lui répondit: Les renards ont des tanières, et les oiseaux du ciel ont des nids; mais le Fils de l’homme n’a pas où reposer sa tête.
