1 Samuel 1:22-28

22But HannahH2584 went not upH5927; for she saidH559 to her husbandH376, I will not go up until the childH5288 is weanedH1580, and then I will bringH935 him, that he may appearH7200 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and there abideH3427 forH5704 everH5769. 23And ElkanahH511 her husbandH376 saidH559 to her, DoH6213 what seemethH5869 to thee goodH2896; tarryH3427 until thou hast weanedH1580 him; only the LORDH3068 establishH6965 his wordH1697. So the womanH802 abodeH3427, and nursedH3243 her sonH1121 until she weanedH1580 him. 24And when she had weanedH1580 him, she took him upH5927 with her, with threeH7969 bullsH6499, and oneH259 ephahH374 of flourH7058, and a bottleH5035 of wineH3196, and broughtH935 him to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 in ShilohH7887: and the childH5288 was youngH5288. 25And they slewH7819 a bullH6499, and broughtH935 the childH5288 to EliH5941. 26And she saidH559, OH994 my lordH113, as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, my lordH113, I am the womanH802 that stoodH5324 by thee here, prayingH6419 to the LORDH3068. 27For this childH5288 I prayedH6419; and the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 me my petitionH7596 which I askedH7592 of him: 28Therefore also I have lentH7592 him to the LORDH3068; as long as he livethH3117 he shall be lentH7592 to the LORDH3068. And he worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068 there.12
