Peninnah

Peninnah
had

Hannah
had no

strkjv@1Samuel:1:3
@ And
this
man
went
up
out of his

yearly
to
worship

sacrifice
unto the
LORD
of

in
Shiloh
. And the
two
sons
of
Eli

strkjv@1Samuel:1:4
@ And when the

offered

portions
:
strkjv@1Samuel:1:5

he
gave

loved

LORD
had shut
up
her
womb
.
strkjv@1Samuel:1:6
@ And her

also
provoked
her
sore

shut
up

strkjv@1Samuel:1:7
@ And as he
did
so
year

she went
up
to the
house

provoked
her; therefore she
wept
, and did not
eat
.
strkjv@1Samuel:1:8

said
Elkanah

to her,
Hannah
, why
weepest
thou? and why

thou not? and why is thy

grieved

Hannah
rose
up

indeed
look

remember
me, and not
forget
thine

give
unto thine

give
him unto the

spake
in her

drunken

strkjv@1Samuel:1:14

answered
