1 Samuel 2:17 in Context — 1 Samuel 2
15 Même avant qu’on fît brûler la graisse, le serviteur du sacrificateur arrivait et disait à celui qui offrait le sacrifice: Donne pour le sacrificateur de la chair à rôtir; il ne recevra de toi point de chair cuite, c’est de la chair crue qu’il veut.
16 Et si l’homme lui disait: Quand on aura brûlé la graisse, tu prendras ce qui te plaira, le serviteur répondait: Non! Tu donneras maintenant, sinon je prends de force.
17 Ces jeunes gens se rendaient coupables devant l’Éternel d’un très grand péché, parce qu’ils méprisaient les offrandes de l’Éternel.
18 Samuel faisait le service devant l’Éternel, et cet enfant était revêtu d’un éphod de lin.
