1 Samuel 28:7 in Context — 1 Samuel 28

5 A la vue du camp des Philistins, Saül fut saisi de crainte, et un violent tremblement s’empara de son cœur.

6 Saül consulta l’Éternel; et l’Éternel ne lui répondit point, ni par des songes, ni par l’urim, ni par les prophètes.

7 Et Saül dit à ses serviteurs: Cherchez-moi une femme qui évoque les morts, et j’irai la consulter. Ses serviteurs lui dirent: Voici, à En-Dor il y a une femme qui évoque les morts.

8 Alors Saül se déguisa et prit d’autres vêtements, et il partit avec deux hommes. Ils arrivèrent de nuit chez la femme. Saül lui dit: Prédis-moi l’avenir en évoquant un mort, et fais-moi monter celui que je te dirai.

9 La femme lui répondit: Voici, tu sais ce que Saül a fait, comment il a retranché du pays ceux qui évoquent les morts et ceux qui prédisent l’avenir; pourquoi donc tends-tu un piège à ma vie pour me faire mourir?
