1 Samuel 28:23 in Context — 1 Samuel 28
21 Então a mulher veio a Saul, e vendo-lhe em grande maneira perturbado, disse-lhe: Eis que tua criada obedeceu à tua voz, e pus minha vida em minha mão, e ouvi as palavras que tu me disseste.
22 Rogo-te, pois, que tu também ouças a voz de tua serva: porei eu diante de ti um bocado de pão que comas, para que te fortaleças, e vás teu caminho.
23 E ele o recusou, dizendo: Não comerei. Mas seus criados juntamente com a mulher lhe obrigaram, e ele os obedeceu. Levantou-se, pois, do chão, e sentou-se sobre uma cama.
24 E aquela mulher tinha em sua casa um bezerro gordo, o qual matou logo; e tomou farinha e amassou-a, e cozeu dela pães sem levedura.
25 E o trouxe diante de Saul e de seus criados; e assim que comeram, se levantaram, e partiram aquela noite.
