English Standard Version
1 Samuel 1:5-8
5But to Hannah he gave a double portion, because he loved her, though the Lord had closed her womb.
6And her rival used to provoke her grievously to irritate her, because the Lord had closed her womb.
7So it went on year by year. As often as she went up to the house of the Lord, she used to provoke her. Therefore Hannah wept and would not eat.
8And Elkanah, her husband, said to her, "Hannah, why do you weep? And why do you not eat? And why is your heart sad? Am I not more to you than ten sons?"
