    4When the day came that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:

    5but to Hannah he gave a double portion; for he loved Hannah, but Yahweh had shut up her womb.

    6Her rival provoked her sore, to make her fret, because Yahweh had shut up her womb.

    7[as] he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of Yahweh, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.

    8Elkanah her husband said to her, Hannah, why weep you? and why don't you 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 was sitting on his seat by the door-post of the temple of Yahweh.

    10She was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to Yahweh, and wept sore.

    11She vowed a vow, and said, Yahweh of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your handmaid, and remember me, and not forget your handmaid, but will give to your handmaid a man-child, then I will give him to Yahweh all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come on his head.

    12It happened, as she continued praying before Yahweh, that Eli marked her mouth.

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

    14Eli said to her, How long will you be drunken? put away your wine from you.

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

    16Don't count your handmaid for a wicked woman; for out of the abundance of my complaint and my provocation have I spoken hitherto.

    17Then Eli answered, Go in peace; and the God of Israel grant your petition that you have asked of him.
