1 Samuel 1:7-20

7And as he didH6213 so yearH8141 by yearH8141, whenH1767 she went upH5927 to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, so she provokedH3707 her; therefore she weptH1058, and did not eatH398.1 8Then saidH559 ElkanahH511 her husbandH376 to her, HannahH2584, why weepestH1058 thou? and why eatestH398 thou not? and why is thy heartH3824 grievedH3415? am not I betterH2896 to thee than tenH6235 sonsH1121?

9So HannahH2584 roseH6965 afterH310 they had eatenH398 in ShilohH7887, and afterH310 they had drunkH8354. Now EliH5941 the priestH3548 satH3427 upon a seatH3678 by a postH4201 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068. 10And she was in bitternessH4751 of soulH5315, and prayedH6419 to the LORDH3068, and weptH1058 bitterlyH1058.2 11And she vowedH5087 a vowH5088, and saidH559, O LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, if thou wilt indeedH7200 lookH7200 on the afflictionH6040 of thy handmaidH519, and rememberH2142 me, and not forgetH7911 thy handmaidH519, but wilt giveH5414 to thy handmaidH519 a sonH582H2233, then I will giveH5414 him to the LORDH3068 all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416, and there shall no razorH4177 comeH5927 upon his headH7218.3 12And it came to pass, as she continuedH7235 prayingH6419 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, that EliH5941 observedH8104 her mouthH6310.4 13Now HannahH2584, spokeH1696 in her heartH3820; only her lipsH8193 movedH5128, but her voiceH6963 was not heardH8085: therefore EliH5941 thoughtH2803 she was drunkH7910. 14And EliH5941 saidH559 to her, How long wilt thou be drunkH7937? put awayH5493 thy wineH3196 from thee. 15And HannahH2584 answeredH6030 and saidH559, No, my lordH113, I am a womanH802 of a sorrowfulH7186 spiritH7307: I have drunkH8354 neither wineH3196 nor strong drinkH7941, but have poured outH8210 my soulH5315 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.5 16CountH5414 not thy handmaidH519 forH6440 a wickedH1100 womanH1323: for out of the abundanceH7230 of my complaintH7879 and griefH3708 have I been speakingH1696.6 17Then EliH5941 answeredH6030 and saidH559, GoH3212 in peaceH7965: and the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 grantH5414 thee thy petitionH7596 that thou hast askedH7592 of him. 18And she saidH559, Let thy handmaidH8198 findH4672 graceH2580 in thy sightH5869. So the womanH802 wentH3212 her wayH1870, and ateH398, and her countenanceH6440 was no more sad .

19And they roseH7925 in the morningH1242 earlyH7925, and worshippedH7812 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and returnedH7725, and cameH935 to their houseH1004 to RamahH7414: and ElkanahH511 knewH3045 HannahH2584 his wifeH802; and the LORDH3068 rememberedH2142 her. 20Therefore it came to pass, when the timeH3117 had arrivedH8622 after HannahH2584 had conceivedH2029, that she boreH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 SamuelH8050, saying, Because I have askedH7592 him of the LORDH3068.78
