Luc 8:9 In-Context

7 Et une autre partie tomba parmi les épines, et les épines levèrent avec le grain, et l'étouffèrent.
8 Et une autre partie tomba dans une bonne terre; et étant levée, elle rendit du fruit, cent pour un. En disant ces choses, il criait: Que celui qui a des oreilles pour entendre, entende!
9 Ses disciples lui demandèrent ce que signifiait cette parabole.
10 Et il répondit: Il vous a été donné de connaître les mystères du royaume de Dieu; mais il en est parlé aux autres en paraboles, de sorte qu'en voyant ils ne voient point, et qu'en entendant ils ne comprennent point.
11 Voici ce que cette parabole signifie.
