1 Samuel 28:20 in Context — 1 Samuel 28
18 Tu n’as point obéi à la voix de l’Éternel, et tu n’as point fait sentir à Amalek l’ardeur de sa colère: voilà pourquoi l’Éternel te traite aujourd’hui de cette manière.
19 Et même l’Éternel livrera Israël avec toi entre les mains des Philistins. Demain, toi et tes fils, vous serez avec moi, et l’Éternel livrera le camp d’Israël entre les mains des Philistins.
20 Aussitôt Saül tomba à terre de toute sa hauteur, et les paroles de Samuel le remplirent d’effroi; de plus, il manquait de force, car il n’avait pris aucune nourriture de tout le jour et de toute la nuit.
21 La femme vint auprès de Saül, et, le voyant très effrayé, elle lui dit: Voici, ta servante a écouté ta voix; j’ai exposé ma vie, en obéissant aux paroles que tu m’as dites.
22 Écoute maintenant, toi aussi, la voix de ta servante, et laisse-moi t’offrir un morceau de pain, afin que tu manges pour avoir la force de te mettre en route.
