3 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. thisH1931 manH376 upH5927 cityH5892 yearlyH3117 yearlyH3117 worshipH7812 sacrificeH2076 LORDH3068 hostsH6635 ShilohH7887 twoH8147 sonsH1121 EliH5941 HophniH2652 PhinehasH6372 priestsH3548 LORDH3068

4 And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions: timeH3117 ElkanahH511 offeredH2076 gaveH5414 PeninnahH6444 wifeH802 sonsH1121 daughtersH1323 portionsH4490

5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb. HannahH2584 gaveH5414 aH259 worthyH639 portionH4490 lovedH157 HannahH2584 LORDH3068 upH5462 wombH7358

7 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. didH6213 yearH8141 yearH8141 whenH1767 upH5927 houseH1004 LORDH3068 provokedH3707 weptH1058 eatH398

8 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? saidH559 ElkanahH511 husbandH376 HannahH2584 weepestH1058 eatestH398 heartH3824 grievedH3415 betterH2896 tenH6235 sonsH1121

9 ¶ 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. HannahH2584 upH6965 afterH310 eatenH398 ShilohH7887 afterH310 drunkH8354 EliH5941 priestH3548 satH3427 seatH3678 postH4201 templeH1964 LORDH3068

10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore. bitternessH4751 soulH5315 prayedH6419 LORDH3068 weptH1058 soreH1058

11 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. vowedH5087 vowH5088 saidH559 LORDH3068 hostsH6635 indeedH7200 lookH7200 afflictionH6040 handmaidH519 rememberH2142 forgetH7911 handmaidH519 giveH5414 handmaidH519 manH582 childH2233 giveH5414 LORDH3068 daysH3117 lifeH2416 razorH4177 comeH5927 headH7218

12 And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth. continuedH7235 prayingH6419 beforeH6440 LORDH3068 EliH5941 markedH8104 mouthH6310

13 Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken. HannahH2584 spakeH1696 heartH3820 lipsH8193 movedH5128 voiceH6963 heardH8085 EliH5941 thoughtH2803 drunkenH7910

14 And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee. EliH5941 saidH559 drunkenH7937 awayH5493 wineH3196

15 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.

17 Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of him. EliH5941 answeredH6030 saidH559 GoH3212 peaceH7965 GodH430 IsraelH3478 grantH5414 petitionH7596 askedH7592

18 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. saidH559 handmaidH8198 findH4672 graceH2580 sightH5869 womanH802 wentH3212 wayH1870 eatH398 countenanceH6440

19 ¶ 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. upH7925 morningH1242 earlyH7925 worshippedH7812 beforeH6440 LORDH3068 returnedH7725 cameH935 houseH1004 RamahH7414 ElkanahH511 knewH3045 HannahH2584 wifeH802 LORDH3068 rememberedH2142

20 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. timeH3117 comeH8622 HannahH2584 conceivedH2029 bareH3205 sonH1121 calledH7121 nameH8034 SamuelH8050 askedH7592 LORDH3068

22 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.

23 And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Do what seemeth thee good; tarry until thou have weaned him; only the LORD establish his word. So the woman abode, and gave her son suck until she weaned him.

24 And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the LORD in Shiloh: and the child was young. weanedH1580 upH5927 threeH7969 bullocksH6499 oneH259 ephahH374 flourH7058 bottleH5035 wineH3196 broughtH935 houseH1004 LORDH3068 ShilohH7887 childH5288 youngH5288

25 And they slew a bullock, and brought the child to Eli. slewH7819 bullockH6499 broughtH935 childH5288 EliH5941

26 And she said, Oh my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto the LORD. saidH559 OhH994 lordH113 soulH5315 livethH2416 lordH113 womanH802 stoodH5324 prayingH6419 LORDH3068
