1 Samuel 1:22-28

22But HannahH2584 did not goH5927 upH5927, for she saidH559 to her husbandH376, “I will not go untilH5704 the childH5288 is weanedH1580; then I will 1bringH935 him, so that he may appearH7200 beforeH6440 the LordH3068 and 2stayH3427 thereH8033 for lifeH5769.”

233ElkanahH511 her husbandH376 saidH559 to her, “DoH6213 4whatH2896 seems bestH2896 to you. StayH3427 untilH5704 you have weanedH1580 him; onlyH389 5may the LordH3068 confirmH6965 His wordH1697.” So the womanH802 stayedH3427 and nursedH3243 her sonH1121 untilH5704 she weanedH1580 him.

24Now whenH3512 she had weanedH1580 him, 6she tookH5927 him upH5927 with her, with a three-year-oldH7969 bullH6499, oneH259 ephahH374 of flourH7058, and a jugH5035 of wineH3196, and broughtH935 him to 7the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 in ShilohH7887, although the childH5288 was youngH5288.

25Then 8they 9slaughteredH7819 the bullH6499, and 10broughtH935 the boyH5288 to EliH5941.

26And she saidH559, “PardonH994 me, my lordH113! 11As your soulH5315 livesH2416, my lordH113, I am the womanH802 who stoodH5324 hereH2088 besideH5973 you, prayingH6419 to the LordH3068.

2712For thisH2088 boyH5288 I prayedH6419, and the LordH3068 has grantedH5414 me my requestH7596 whichH834 I askedH7592 of Him.

2813So I have alsoH1571 14dedicatedH7592 him to the LordH3068; asH3605H3117 longH3605H3117 as he livesH1961 he is 15dedicatedH7592 to the LordH3068.” And 16he worshipedH2331 the LordH3068 thereH8033.
