Nombres 6:22-27

22 L'Eternel parla à Moïse, et dit:

23 Parle à Aaron et à ses fils, et dis: Vous bénirez ainsi les enfants d'Israël, vous leur direz:

24 Que l'Eternel te bénisse, et qu'il te garde!

25 Que l'Eternel fasse luire sa face sur toi, et qu'il t'accorde sa grâce!

26 Que l'Eternel tourne sa face vers toi, et qu'il te donne la paix!

27 C'est ainsi qu'ils mettront mon nom sur les enfants d'Israël, et je les bénirai.
