Now there was a certain
man
of Ramathaimzophim,
of mount
Ephraim,
and his name
was Elkanah,
the son
of Jeroham,
the son
of Elihu,
the son
of Tohu,
the son
of Zuph,
an Ephrathite:

And he had two
wives;
the name
of the one
was Hannah,
and the name
of the other
Peninnah:
and Peninnah
had children,
but Hannah
had no children.

And this
man
went up
out of his city
yearly
to worship
and to sacrifice
unto the LORD
of hosts
in Shiloh.
And the two
sons
of Eli,
Hophni
and Phinehas,
the priests
of the LORD,
were there.

And when the time
was that Elkanah
offered,
he gave
to Peninnah
his wife,
and to all her sons
and her daughters,
portions:
But unto Hannah
he gave
a
worthy
portion;
for he loved
Hannah:
but the LORD
had shut up
her womb.

And her adversary
also provoked

And as he did
so year
by year,
when
she went up
to the house
of the LORD,
so she provoked
her; therefore she wept,
and did not eat.
Then said
Elkanah
her husband
to her, Hannah,
why weepest
thou? and why eatest
thou not? and why is thy heart
grieved?
am not I better
to thee than ten
sons?

So Hannah
rose up
after
they had eaten
in Shiloh,
and after
they had drunk.
Now Eli
the priest
sat
upon a seat
by a post
of the temple
of the LORD.

And she was in bitterness
of soul,
and prayed
unto the LORD,
and wept
sore.
And she vowed
a vow,
and said,
O LORD
of hosts,
if thou wilt indeed
look
on the affliction
of thine handmaid,
and remember
me, and not forget
thine handmaid,
but wilt give
unto thine handmaid
a man
child,
then I will give
him unto the LORD
all the days
of his life,
and there shall no razor
come
upon his head.

And it came to pass, as she continued
praying
before
the LORD,
that Eli
marked
her mouth.
Now Hannah,
she spake
in her heart;
only her lips
moved,
but her voice
was not heard:
therefore Eli
thought
she had been drunken.
And Eli
said
unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken?
put away
thy wine
from thee.
And Hannah
answered
and said,
No, my lord,
I am a woman
of a sorrowful
spirit:
I have drunk
neither wine
nor strong drink,
but have poured out
my soul
before
the LORD.

Count
not thine handmaid
for

for out of the abundance
of my complaint
and grief
have I spoken
hitherto.
Then Eli
answered
and said,
Go
in peace:
and the God
of Israel
grant
thee thy petition
that thou hast asked
of him.
And she said,
Let thine handmaid
find
grace
in thy sight.
So the woman
went
her way,
and did eat,
and her countenance
was no more sad.

And they rose up
in the morning
early,
and worshipped
before
the LORD,
and returned,
and came
to their house
to Ramah:
and Elkanah
knew
Hannah
his wife;
and the LORD
remembered
her.

Wherefore it came to pass, when the time
was come
about after Hannah
had conceived,
that she bare
a son,
and called
his name
Samuel,
saying, Because I have asked
him of the LORD.

And the man
Elkanah,
and all his house,
went up
to offer
unto the LORD
the yearly
sacrifice,
and his vow.

But Hannah
went not up;
for she said
unto her husband,
I will not go up until the child
be weaned,
and then I will bring
him, that he may appear
before
the LORD,
and there abide
for
ever.

And Elkanah

unto her, Do

tarry
until thou have weaned

establish
his word.
So the woman
abode,
and gave her son

until she weaned
him.

And when she had weaned

him unto the house

And they slew

And she said,
Oh

as thy soul
liveth,
my lord,
I am the woman
that stood
by thee here, praying
unto the LORD.
For this child
I prayed;
and the LORD
hath given
me my petition
which I asked
of him:
Therefore also I have lent
him to the LORD;
as long as he liveth
he shall be lent
to the LORD.
And he worshipped
the LORD
there.
