5but to HannahH2584 he would giveH5414 a doubleH639 portionH4490, for he lovedH157 HannahH2584, 1but the LordH3068 had closedH5462 her wombH7358. 6Her rivalH6869, however, 2would provokeH3707 her bitterlyH1571H3708 to irritateH7481 her, becauseH3588 the LordH3068 had closedH5462 her wombH7358. 7It happenedH6213 yearH8141 after yearH8141, as oftenH1767 as she wentH5927 up to the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, she would provokeH3707 her; so she weptH1058 and would not eatH398. 8Then ElkanahH511 her husbandH376 saidH559 to her, “HannahH2584, whyH4100 do you weepH1058 and whyH4100 do you not eatH398 and whyH4100 is your heartH3824 sadH7489? 3Am I not betterH2896 to you thanH4480 tenH6235 sonsH1121?”
