    7And so he did year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore Hannah wept and did not eat.

    8Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why do you weep? and why do you not eat? and why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?

    9So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat on a seat by a doorpost of the temple of the LORD.

    10And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the LORD, and wept greatly.

    11And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your maidservant, and remember me, and not forget your maidservant, but will give your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.

    12And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli watched her mouth.

    13Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she was drunk.

    14And Eli said to her, How long will you be drunk? Put away your wine from you.

    15And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.

    16Do not consider your maidservant a wicked woman: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken until now.
