1 Samuel 1:13-16

13Now Hannah was praying in her heart—only her lips were moving, but her voice could not be heard. So Eli thought she was drunk.

14Then Eli said to her, “How long will you be drunk? Get rid of your wine!”

15But in response Hannah said, “No, my lord, I am a woman with an oppressed spirit! I haven’t been drinking wine or beer. Instead I’ve been pouring out my soul before Adonai.

16Don’t consider your handmaid a wicked woman. For out of my great anguish and grief I’ve been praying until now.”
