Matthew 9:11 in Context — Matthew 9

9 De là étant allé plus loin, Jésus vit un homme assis au lieu des péages, et qui s’appelait Matthieu. Il lui dit: Suis-moi. Cet homme se leva, et le suivit.

10 Comme Jésus était à table dans la maison, voici, beaucoup de publicains et de gens de mauvaise vie vinrent se mettre à table avec lui et avec ses disciples.

11 Les pharisiens virent cela, et ils dirent à ses disciples: Pourquoi votre maître mange-t-il avec les publicains et les gens de mauvaise vie?

12 Ce que Jésus ayant entendu, il dit: Ce ne sont pas ceux qui se portent bien qui ont besoin de médecin, mais les malades.

13 Allez, et apprenez ce que signifie:Je prends plaisir à la miséricorde, et non aux sacrifices.Car je ne suis pas venu appeler des justes, mais des pécheurs.
