Romans 13:11 in Context — Romans 13

9 En effet, les commandements: Tu ne commettras point d’adultère, tu ne tueras point, tu ne déroberas point, tu ne convoiteras point, et ceux qu’il peut encore y avoir, se résument dans cette parole: Tu aimeras ton prochain comme toi-même.

10 L’amour ne fait point de mal au prochain: l’amour est donc l’accomplissement de la loi.

11 Cela importe d’autant plus que vous savez en quel temps nous sommes: c’est l’heure de vous réveiller enfin du sommeil, car maintenant le salut est plus près de nous que lorsque nous avons cru.

12 La nuit est avancée, le jour approche. Dépouillons-nous donc des œuvres des ténèbres, et revêtons les armes de la lumière.

13 Marchons honnêtement, comme en plein jour, loin des excès et de l’ivrognerie, de la luxure et de l’impudicité, des querelles et des jalousies.
