Revelation 2:5 in Context — Revelation 2

3 que tu as de la persévérance, que tu as souffert à cause de mon nom, et que tu ne t’es point lassé.

4 Mais ce que j’ai contre toi, c’est que tu as abandonné ton premier amour.

5 Souviens-toi donc d’où tu es tombé, repens-toi, et pratique tes premières œuvres; sinon, je viendrai à toi, et j’ôterai ton chandelier de sa place, à moins que tu ne te repentes.

6 Tu as pourtant ceci, c’est que tu hais les œuvresdes Nicolaïtes, œuvres que je hais aussi.

7 Que celui qui a des oreilles entende ce que l’Esprit dit aux Églises: A celui qui vaincra je donnerai à manger del’arbre de vie, qui est dans le paradis de Dieu.
