1 Samuel 1:9-18
9Then HannahH2584 roseH6965 afterH310 eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 in ShilohH7887. Now EliH5941 the priestH3548 was sittingH3427 on the seatH3678 by the doorpostH4201 of 1the templeH1964 of the LordH3068. 10She, 2greatlyH4751 distressedH4751, prayedH6419 to the LordH3068 and weptH1058 bitterlyH1058. 11She 3madeH5087 a vowH5088 and saidH559, “O LordH3068 of hostsH6635, ifH518 You will indeedH7200 4lookH7200 on the afflictionH6040 of Your maidservantH519 and rememberH2142 me, and not forgetH7911 Your maidservantH519, but will giveH5414 Your maidservantH519 a 5sonH2233H376, then I will giveH5414 him to the LordH3068 allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH2425, and 6a razorH4177 shall neverH3808 comeH5927 on his headH7218.”
12Now it cameH1961 about, as she 7continuedH7235 prayingH6419 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, that EliH5941 was watchingH8104 her mouthH6310. 13As for HannahH2584, 8she was speakingH1696 in her heartH3820, onlyH7534 her lipsH8193 were movingH5128, but her voiceH6963 was not heardH8085. So EliH5941 thoughtH2803 she was drunkH7910. 14Then EliH5941 saidH559 to her, “9HowH4970 longH5704H4970 will you makeH7937 yourself drunkH7937? PutH5493 awayH5493 your wineH3196 from you.” 15But HannahH2584 repliedH6030, “NoH369, my lordH113, I am a womanH802 10oppressedH7186 in spiritH7307; I have drunkH8354 neitherH3808 wineH3196 norH3808 strongH7941 drinkH7941, but I 11have pouredH8210 out my soulH5315 beforeH6440 the LordH3068. 16Do not 12considerH5414 your maidservantH519 as a worthlessH1100 womanH1323, for I have spokenH1696 untilH5704 nowH2008 out of my greatH7230 concernH7879 and 13provocationH3708.” 17Then EliH5941 answeredH6030 and saidH559, “14GoH1980 in peaceH7965; and may the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 15grantH5414 your petitionH7596 that you have askedH7592 of Him.” 18She saidH559, “16Let your maidservantH8198 findH4672 favorH2580 in your sightH5869.” So the womanH802 wentH1980 her wayH1870 and ateH398, and 17her faceH6440 was noH3808 longerH5750 sad.
