    1 There was a man from Ramathaim-Zophim, in the hill country of Ephraim. His name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite.

    2 He had two wives. The name of one was Hannah, and the name of the other was Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

    3 Year after year, this man would go up from his city to worship and to offer sacrifices to the LORD of Hosts at Shiloh, where Eli's two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, served as priests of the LORD.

    4 On the day Elkanah sacrificed, he would give portions of the meat to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters.

    19 Early in the morning, they arose and worshiped before the LORD, and then they returned to their home in Ramah. Elkanah was intimate with his wife Hannah, and the LORD remembered her.

    20 In the course of time, Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, saying, 'Because I asked the LORD for him.'

    21 When Elkanah and all his household went up to offer the annual sacrifice to the LORD and to fulfill his vow,

    22 Hannah did not go. She said to her husband, 'After the boy is weaned, I will take him to appear before the LORD, and he will remain there permanently.'

    23 Elkanah her husband said to her, 'Do what seems best to you. Stay here until you have weaned him; only may the LORD establish His word.' So the woman stayed and nursed her son until she weaned him.

    24 After she had weaned him, she took him along with her, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour, and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh. The boy was young.

    25 They slaughtered the bull and brought the boy to Eli.

    26 She said, 'Pardon me, my lord. As surely as you live, my lord, I am the woman who stood here beside you praying to the LORD.
