1 Samuel 1:24 (NIV) New International Version

1 There was a certain man from Ramathaim, a Zuphite from the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Elkanah son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
2 He had two wives; one was called Hannah and the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none.
3 Year after year this man went up from his town to worship and sacrifice to the LORD Almighty at Shiloh, where Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were priests of the LORD.
4 Whenever the day came for Elkanah to sacrifice, he would give portions of the meat to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters.
5 But to Hannah he gave a double portion because he loved her, and the LORD had closed her womb.
6 And because the LORD had closed her womb, her rival kept provoking her in order to irritate her.
7 This went on year after year. Whenever Hannah went up to the house of the LORD, her rival provoked her till she wept and would not eat.
8 Elkanah her husband would say to her, "Hannah, why are you weeping? Why don't you eat? Why are you downhearted? Don't I mean more to you than ten sons?"
9 Once when they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah stood up. Now Eli the priest was sitting on a chair by the doorpost of the LORD's temple.
10 In bitterness of soul Hannah wept much and prayed to the LORD.
11 And she made a vow, saying, "O LORD Almighty, if you will only look upon your servant's misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the LORD for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head."
12 As she kept on praying to the LORD, Eli observed her mouth.
13 Hannah was praying in her heart, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard. Eli thought she was drunk
14 and said to her, "How long will you keep on getting drunk? Get rid of your wine."
15 "Not so, my lord," Hannah replied, "I am a woman who is deeply troubled. I have not been drinking wine or beer; I was pouring out my soul to the LORD.
16 Do not take your servant for a wicked woman; I have been praying here out of my great anguish and grief."
17 Eli answered, "Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant you what you have asked of him."
18 She said, "May your servant find favour in your eyes." Then she went her way and ate something, and her face was no longer downcast.
19 Early the next morning they arose and worshipped before the LORD and then went back to their home at Ramah. Elkanah lay with Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her.
20 So in the course of time Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, saying, "Because I asked the LORD for him."
21 When the man Elkanah went up with all his family to offer the annual sacrifice to the LORD and to fulfil his vow,
22 Hannah did not go. She said to her husband, "After the boy is weaned, I will take him and present him before the LORD, and he will live there always."
23 "Do what seems best to you," Elkanah her husband told her. "Stay here until you have weaned him; only may the LORD make good his word." So the woman stayed at home and nursed her son until she had weaned him.
24 After he was weaned, she took the boy with her, young as he was, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh.
25 When they had slaughtered the bull, they brought the boy to Eli,
26 and she said to him, "As surely as you live, my lord, I am the woman who stood here beside you praying to the LORD.
27 I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him.
28 So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he shall be given over to the LORD." And he worshipped the LORD there.
1 Now there was H1961 W-VQY3MS a certain H259 MMS man H376 NMS of H4480 PREP Ramathaim H7436 - zophim , of mount H2022 Ephraim H669 , and his name H8034 was Elkanah H511 , the son H1121 CMS of Jeroham H3395 , the son H1121 CMS of Elihu H453 EMS , the son H1121 CMS of Tohu H8459 , the son H1121 CMS of Zuph H6689 , an Ephrathite H6733 .
2 And he had two H8147 ONUM wives H802 GFP ; the name H8034 CMS of the one H259 OFS was Hannah H2584 , and the name H8034 W-CMS of the other H8145 D-ONUM Peninnah H6444 : and Peninnah H6444 had H1961 W-VQY3MS children H3206 , but Hannah H2584 had no H369 NPAR children H3206 .
3 And this H1931 D-PPRO-3MS man H376 D-NMS went up H5927 out of his city H5892 yearly H3117 to worship H7812 and to sacrifice H2076 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS of hosts H6635 in Shiloh H7887 . And the two H8147 ONUM sons H1121 of Eli H5941 , Hophni H2652 and Phinehas H6372 , the priests H3548 NMP of the LORD H3068 , were there H8033 W-ADV .
4 And when the time H3117 D-AMS was H1961 W-VQY3MS that Elkanah H511 offered H2076 , he gave H5414 W-VQQ3MS to Peninnah H6444 his wife H802 CFS-3MS , and to all H3605 WL-CMS her sons H1121 CMP-3FS and her daughters H1323 CFP-3FS , portions H4490 :
5 But unto Hannah H2584 he gave H5414 VHFA a H259 OFS worthy H639 portion H4490 ; for H3588 CONJ he loved H157 Hannah H2584 : but the LORD H3068 W-EDS had shut up H5462 VQQ3MS her womb H7358 .
6 And her adversary H6869 also H1571 CONJ provoked H3707 her sore H3708 , for to H5668 B-NMS make her fret H7481 , because H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS had shut up H5462 VQQ3MS her womb H7358 .
7 And as he did H6213 VQY3MS so H3651 ADV year H8141 NFS by year H8141 , when H1767 she went up H5927 to the house H1004 B-CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , so H3651 ADV she provoked H3707 her ; therefore she wept H1058 , and did not H3808 W-NPAR eat H398 .
8 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS Elkanah H511 her husband H376 to her , Hannah H2584 , why H4100 weepest H1058 thou ? and why H4100 eatest H398 thou not H3808 NADV ? and why H4100 is thy heart H3824 grieved H7489 ? am not H3808 ADV I H595 PPRO-1MS better H2896 AMS to thee than ten H6235 sons H1121 ?
9 So Hannah H2584 rose up H6965 after H310 PREP they had eaten H398 VQQ3FS in Shiloh H7887 , and after H310 they had drunk H8354 . Now Eli H5941 the priest H3548 sat H3427 VQPMS upon H5921 PREP a seat H3678 by H5921 PREP a post H4201 of the temple H1964 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
10 And she H1931 was in bitterness H4751 of soul H5315 , and prayed H6419 unto H5921 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS , and wept sore H1058 .
11 And she vowed H5087 a vow H5088 , and said H559 , O LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , if H518 PART thou wilt indeed look H7200 on the affliction H6040 of thine handmaid H519 , and remember H2142 me , and not H3808 ADV forget H7911 thine handmaid H519 , but wilt give H5414 unto thine handmaid H519 a man H376 NMP child H2233 NMS , then I will give H5414 him unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS all H3605 NMS the days H3117 CMP of his life H2416 , and there shall no H3808 NADV razor H4177 come H5927 VQY3MS upon H5921 PREP his head H7218 CMP-3MS .
12 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , as H3588 CONJ she continued H7235 praying H6419 before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , that Eli H5941 marked H8104 her mouth H6310 CMS-3FS .
13 Now Hannah H2584 , she H1931 PPRO-3FS spoke H1696 in H5921 PREP her heart H3820 ; only H7535 ADV her lips H8193 moved H5128 , but her voice H6963 was not H3808 NADV heard H8085 : therefore Eli H5941 thought H2803 she had been drunken H7910 .
14 And Eli H5941 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her , How H5704 PREP long H4970 IGAT wilt thou be drunken H7937 ? put away H5493 thy wine H3196 from thee .
15 And Hannah H2584 answered H6030 and said H559 W-VQY3FS , No H3808 NADV , my lord H113 , I am a woman H802 NFS of a sorrowful H7186 spirit H7307 NFS : I H595 PPRO-1MS have drunk H8354 neither H3808 NADV wine H3196 nor strong drink H7941 , but have poured out H8210 my soul H5315 CFS-1MS before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
16 Count H5414 VQY2MS not H408 NPAR thine handmaid H519 for H6440 L-CMP a daughter of Belial H1100 NMS : for H3588 CONJ out of the abundance H7230 M-NMS of my complaint H7879 CMS and grief H3708 have I spoken H1696 VPQ1MS hitherto H5704 PREP .
17 Then Eli H5941 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Go H1980 in peace H7965 : and the God H430 of Israel H3478 grant H5414 VHFA thee thy petition H7596 that H834 RPRO thou hast asked H7592 of him .
18 And she said H559 W-VQY3FS , Let thine handmaid H8198 find H4672 VQY2MS grace H2580 NMS in thy sight H5869 . So the woman H802 D-NFS went H1980 W-VQQ3FS her way H1870 , and did eat H398 W-VQY3FS , and her countenance H6440 was H1961 VQQ3MP no H3808 NADV more H5750 ADV sad .
19 And they rose up in the morning early H7925 , and worshiped H7812 before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , and returned H7725 W-VUY3MP , and came H935 W-VQY3MP to H413 PREP their house H1004 to Ramah H7414 : and Elkanah H511 knew H3045 W-VQY3MS Hannah H2584 his wife H802 CFS-3MS ; and the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS remembered H2142 her .
20 Wherefore it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when the time H3117 D-NMP was come H8622 about after Hannah H2584 had conceived H2029 W-VQY3FS , that she bore H3205 W-VQY3FS a son H1121 NMS , and called H7121 W-VQY2MS his name H8034 CMS-3MS Samuel H8050 , saying , Because H3588 CONJ I have asked H7592 him of the LORD H3068 .
21 And the man H376 D-NMS Elkanah H511 , and all H3605 W-CMS his house H1004 NMS-3MS , went up H5927 W-VHY3MS to offer H2076 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS the yearly H3117 D-NMP sacrifice H2077 NMS , and his vow H5088 .
22 But Hannah H2584 went not up H5927 ; for H3588 CONJ she said H559 VQQ3FS unto her husband H376 , I will not go up until H5704 PREP the child H5288 be weaned H1580 , and then I will bring H935 him , that he may appear H7200 before H6440 CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , and there H8033 ADV abide H3427 forever H5704 PREP .
23 And Elkanah H511 her husband H376 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto her , Do H6213 what seemeth H5869 thee good H2896 D-NMS ; tarry H3427 until H5704 PREP thou have weaned H1580 him ; only H389 ADV the LORD H3068 EDS establish H6965 his word H1697 . So the woman H802 D-NFS abode H3427 , and gave her son suck H3243 until H5704 PREP she weaned H1580 him .
24 And when H834 K-RPRO she had weaned H1580 him , she took him up H5927 with H5973 PREP-3FS her , with three H7969 NFS bullocks H6499 , and one H259 OFS ephah H374 of flour H7058 , and a bottle H5035 of wine H3196 NMS , and brought H935 him unto the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS in Shiloh H7887 : and the child H5288 was young H5288 .
25 And they slew H7819 a bullock H6499 , and brought H935 the child H5288 to H413 PREP Eli H5941 .
26 And she said H559 W-VQY3FS , Oh H994 my lord H113 , as thy soul H5315 liveth H2416 , my lord H113 , I H589 PPRO-1MS am the woman H802 D-NFS that stood H5324 by H5973 thee here H2088 , praying H6419 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
27 For H413 PREP this H2088 D-PMS child H5288 I prayed H6419 ; and the LORD H3068 EDS hath given H5414 W-VQQ3MS me my petition H7596 which H834 RPRO I asked H7592 of him :
28 Therefore also H1571 W-CONJ I H595 PPRO-1MS have lent H7592 him to the LORD H3068 L-EDS ; as long H3605 NMS as H834 RPRO he liveth H3117 D-NMP he H1931 PPRO-3MS shall be H1961 VQQ3MS lent H7592 to the LORD H3068 L-EDS . And he worshiped H7812 the LORD H3068 there H8033 ADV .
