1 Samuel 1:12 in Context — 1 Samuel 1

10 Et, l’amertume dans l’âme, elle pria l’Éternel et versa des pleurs.

11 Elle fit un vœu, en disant: Éternel des armées! Si tu daignes regarder l’affliction de ta servante, si tu te souviens de moi et n’oublies point ta servante, et si tu donnes à ta servante un enfant mâle, je le consacrerai à l’Éternel pour tous les jours de sa vie, et le rasoir ne passera point sur sa tête.

12 Comme elle restait longtemps en prière devant l’Éternel, Éli observa sa bouche.

13 Anne parlait dans son cœur, et ne faisait que remuer les lèvres, mais on n’entendait point sa voix. Éli pensa qu’elle était ivre,

14 et il lui dit: Jusques à quand seras-tu dans l’ivresse? Fais passer ton vin.
