1 Samuel 1:3-9

3And this manH376 wentH5927 upH5927 outH8147 of his cityH5892 from yearH3117 to yearH3117 to worshipH7812 and to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 in ShilohH7887. And the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, priestsH3548 unto the LORDH3068, were there.

4And when the dayH3117 cameH1961 that ElkanahH511 sacrificedH2076, he gaveH5414 to PeninnahH6444 his wifeH802, and to allH3605 herH3605 sonsH1121 and herH3605 daughtersH1323 portionsH4490:

5but unto HannahH2584 he gaveH5414 a doubleH639 portionH4490: for he lovedH157 HannahH2584, but the LORDH3068 had shutH5462 upH5462 herH5414 wombH7358.

6And herH5462 rival provokedH3707 herH5462 sore, for to makeH3588 herH5462 fret, becauseH3588 the LORDH3068 had shutH5462 upH5462 herH5462 wombH7358.

7And as he didH6213 soH3651 yearH8141 by yearH8141, when sheH3808 wentH5927 upH5927 to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, soH3651 sheH3808 provokedH3707 herH398; therefore sheH3808 weptH1058, and didH6213 notH3808 eatH398.

8And ElkanahH511 herH398 husbandH376 saidH559 unto herH398, HannahH2584, whyH4100 weepest thou? and whyH4100 eatest thou notH3808? and whyH4100 is thy heartH3824 grieved? am notH3808 I betterH2896 to thee thanH3808 tenH6235 sonsH1121?

9SoH6965 HannahH2584 roseH6965 upH6965 afterH310 they had eatenH398 in ShilohH7887, and afterH310 they had drunkH8354. NowH310 EliH5941 the priestH3548 satH3427 uponH5921 his seatH3678 by the doorH4201 postH4201 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068.
