  • 1 Sam 1:1-9 : 1 Now there was a certain{H259} man{H376} of Ramathaimzophim{H7436}, of mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669}, and his name{H8034} was Elkanah{H511}, the son{H1121} of Jeroham{H3395}, the son{H1121} of Elihu{H453}, the son{H1121} of Tohu{H8459}, the son{H1121} of Zuph{H6689}, an Ephrathite{H673}: 2 And he had two{H8147} wives{H802}; the name{H8034} of the one{H259} was Hannah{H2584}, and the name{H8034} of the other{H8145} Peninnah{H6444}: and Peninnah{H6444} had children{H3206}, but Hannah{H2584} had no children{H3206}. 3 And this{H1931} man{H376} went up{H5927}{(H8804)} out of his city{H5892} yearly{H3117}{H3117} to worship{H7812}{(H8692)} and to sacrifice{H2076}{(H8800)} unto the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} in Shiloh{H7887}. And the two{H8147} sons{H1121} of Eli{H5941}, Hophni{H2652} and Phinehas{H6372}, the priests{H3548} of the LORD{H3068}, were there. 4 And when the time{H3117} was that Elkanah{H511} offered{H2076}{(H8799)}, he gave{H5414}{(H8804)} to Peninnah{H6444} his wife{H802}, and to all her sons{H1121} and her daughters{H1323}, portions{H4490}: 5 But unto Hannah{H2584} he gave{H5414}{(H8799)} a{H259} worthy{H639} portion{H4490}; for he loved{H157}{(H8804)} Hannah{H2584}: but the LORD{H3068} had shut up{H5462}{(H8804)} her womb{H7358}. 6 And her adversary{H6869} also provoked{H3707}{(H8765)} her sore{H3708}, for to make her fret{H7481}{(H8687)}, because the LORD{H3068} had shut{H5462}{(H8804)} up{H1157} her womb{H7358}. 7 And as he did{H6213}{(H8799)} so year{H8141} by year{H8141}, when{H1767} she went up{H5927}{(H8800)} to the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, so she provoked{H3707}{(H8686)} her; therefore she wept{H1058}{(H8799)}, and did not eat{H398}{(H8799)}. 8 Then said{H559}{(H8799)} Elkanah{H511} her husband{H376} to her, Hannah{H2584}, why weepest{H1058}{(H8799)} thou? and why eatest{H398}{(H8799)} thou not? and why is thy heart{H3824} grieved{H3415}{(H8799)}? am not I better{H2896} to thee than ten{H6235} sons{H1121}? 9 So Hannah{H2584} rose up{H6965}{(H8799)} after{H310} they had eaten{H398}{(H8800)} in Shiloh{H7887}, and after{H310} they had drunk{H8354}{(H8800)}. Now Eli{H5941} the priest{H3548} sat{H3427}{(H8802)} upon a seat{H3678} by a post{H4201} of the temple{H1964} of the LORD{H3068}. 10 And she was in bitterness{H4751} of soul{H5315}, and prayed{H6419}{(H8691)} unto the LORD{H3068}, and wept{H1058}{(H8799)} sore{H1058}{(H8800)}. 11 And she vowed{H5087}{(H8799)} a vow{H5088}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, O LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, if thou wilt indeed{H7200}{(H8800)} look{H7200}{(H8799)} on the affliction{H6040} of thine handmaid{H519}, and remember{H2142}{(H8804)} me, and not forget{H7911}{(H8799)} thine handmaid{H519}, but wilt give{H5414}{(H8804)} unto thine handmaid{H519} a man{H582} child{H2233}, then I will give{H5414}{(H8804)} him unto the LORD{H3068} all the days{H3117} of his life{H2416}, and there shall no razor{H4177} come{H5927}{(H8799)} upon his head{H7218}. 12 And it came to pass, as she continued{H7235}{(H8689)} praying{H6419}{(H8692)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, that Eli{H5941} marked{H8104}{(H8802)} her mouth{H6310}. 13 Now Hannah{H2584}, she spake{H1696}{(H8764)} in her heart{H3820}; only her lips{H8193} moved{H5128}{(H8801)}, but her voice{H6963} was not heard{H8085}{(H8735)}: therefore Eli{H5941} thought{H2803}{(H8799)} she had been drunken{H7910}. 14 And Eli{H5941} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken{H7937}{(H8691)}? put away{H5493}{(H8685)} thy wine{H3196} from thee. 15 And Hannah{H2584} answered{H6030}{(H8799)} and said{H559}{(H8799)}, No, my lord{H113}, I am a woman{H802} of a sorrowful{H7186} spirit{H7307}: I have drunk{H8354}{(H8804)} neither wine{H3196} nor strong drink{H7941}, but have poured out{H8210}{(H8799)} my soul{H5315} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}. 16 Count{H5414}{(H8799)} not thine handmaid{H519} for{H6440} a daughter{H1323} of Belial{H1100}: for out of the abundance{H7230} of my complaint{H7879} and grief{H3708} have I spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} hitherto. 17 Then Eli{H5941} answered{H6030}{(H8799)} and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Go{H3212}{(H8798)} in peace{H7965}: and the God{H430} of Israel{H3478} grant{H5414}{(H8799)} thee thy petition{H7596} that thou hast asked{H7592}{(H8804)} of him. 18 And she said{H559}{(H8799)}, Let thine handmaid{H8198} find{H4672}{(H8799)} grace{H2580} in thy sight{H5869}. So the woman{H802} went{H3212}{(H8799)} her way{H1870}, and did eat{H398}{(H8799)}, and her countenance{H6440} was no more sad. 19 And they rose up{H7925} in the morning{H1242} early{H7925}{(H8686)}, and worshipped{H7812}{(H8691)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, and returned{H7725}{(H8799)}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} to their house{H1004} to Ramah{H7414}: and Elkanah{H511} knew{H3045}{(H8799)} Hannah{H2584} his wife{H802}; and the LORD{H3068} remembered{H2142}{(H8799)} her. 20 Wherefore it came to pass, when the time{H3117} was come{H8622} about after Hannah{H2584} had conceived{H2029}{(H8799)}, that she bare{H3205}{(H8799)} a son{H1121}, and called{H7121}{(H8799)} his name{H8034} Samuel{H8050}, saying, Because I have asked{H7592}{(H8804)} him of the LORD{H3068}. 21 And the man{H376} Elkanah{H511}, and all his house{H1004}, went up{H5927}{(H8799)} to offer{H2076}{(H8800)} unto the LORD{H3068} the yearly{H3117} sacrifice{H2077}, and his vow{H5088}. 22 But Hannah{H2584} went not up{H5927}{(H8804)}; for she said{H559}{(H8804)} unto her husband{H376}, I will not go up until the child{H5288} be weaned{H1580}{(H8735)}, and then I will bring{H935}{(H8689)} him, that he may appear{H7200}{(H8738)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, and there abide{H3427}{(H8804)} for{H5704} ever{H5769}. 23 And Elkanah{H511} her husband{H376} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, Do{H6213}{(H8798)} what seemeth{H5869} thee good{H2896}; tarry{H3427}{(H8798)} until thou have weaned{H1580}{(H8800)} him; only the LORD{H3068} establish{H6965}{(H8686)} his word{H1697}. So the woman{H802} abode{H3427}{(H8799)}, and gave her son{H1121} suck{H3243}{(H8686)} until she weaned{H1580}{(H8800)} him. 24 And when she had weaned{H1580}{(H8804)} him, she took him up{H5927}{(H8686)} with her, with three{H7969} bullocks{H6499}, and one{H259} ephah{H374} of flour{H7058}, and a bottle{H5035} of wine{H3196}, and brought{H935}{(H8686)} him unto the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068} in Shiloh{H7887}: and the child{H5288} was young{H5288}. 25 And they slew{H7819}{(H8799)} a bullock{H6499}, and brought{H935}{(H8686)} the child{H5288} to Eli{H5941}. 26 And she said{H559}{(H8799)}, Oh{H994} my lord{H113}, as thy soul{H5315} liveth{H2416}, my lord{H113}, I am the woman{H802} that stood{H5324}{(H8737)} by thee here, praying{H6419}{(H8692)} unto the LORD{H3068}. 27 For this child{H5288} I prayed{H6419}{(H8694)}; and the LORD{H3068} hath given{H5414}{(H8799)} me my petition{H7596} which I asked{H7592}{(H8804)} of him: 28 Therefore also I have lent{H7592}{(H8689)} him to the LORD{H3068}; as long as he liveth{H3117} he shall be lent{H7592}{(H8803)} to the LORD{H3068}. And he worshipped{H7812}{(H8691)} the LORD{H3068} there.
