1 Samuel 1:23 in Context — 1 Samuel 1
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.
24 Quand elle l’eut sevré, elle le fit monter avec elle, et prit trois taureaux, un épha de farine, et une outre de vin. Elle le mena dans la maison de l’Éternel à Silo: l’enfant était encore tout jeune.
25 Ils égorgèrent les taureaux, et ils conduisirent l’enfant à Éli.
