1 Il y avait un homme de Ramathaïm-Tsophim, de la montagne d’Éphraïm, nommé Elkana, fils de Jeroham, fils d’Élihu, fils de Thohu, fils de Tsuph, Éphratien.

2 Il avait deux femmes, dont l’une s’appelait Anne, et l’autre Peninna; Peninna avait des enfants, mais Anne n’en avait point.

3 Chaque année, cet homme montait de sa ville à Silo, pour se prosterner devant l’Éternel des armées et pour lui offrir des sacrifices. Là se trouvaient les deux fils d’Éli, Hophni et Phinées, sacrificateurs de l’Éternel.

4 Le jour où Elkana offrait son sacrifice, il donnait des portions à Peninna, sa femme, et à tous les fils et à toutes les filles qu’il avait d’elle.
