1 Samuel 1:21 in Context — 1 Samuel 1

19 Ils se levèrent de bon matin, et après s’être prosternés devant l’Éternel, ils s’en retournèrent et revinrent dans leur maison à Rama. Elkana connut Anne, sa femme, et l’Éternel se souvint d’elle.

20 Dans le cours de l’année, Anne devint enceinte, et elle enfanta un fils, qu’elle nomma Samuel, car, dit-elle, je l’ai demandé à l’Éternel.

21 Son mari Elkana monta ensuite avec toute sa maison, pour offrir à l’Éternel le sacrifice annuel, et pour accomplir son vœu.

22 Mais Anne ne monta point, et elle dit à son mari: Lorsque l’enfant sera sevré, je le mènerai, afin qu’il soit présenté devant l’Éternel et qu’il reste là pour toujours.

23 Elkana, son mari, lui dit: Fais ce qui te semblera bon, attends de l’avoir sevré. Veuille seulement l’Éternel accomplir sa parole! Et la femme resta et allaita son fils, jusqu’à ce qu’elle le sevrât.
