1Samuel:1:21-28
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the man Elkanah ,
and all his house ,
went up to offer to LORD the yearly sacrifice ,
and his vow .
*
But Hannah did not go up ,
for she said to her husband , [
Not ]
until the child be weaned ,
and then I will bring him ,
that he may appear before LORD ,
and abide there forever .
*
And Elkanah her husband said to her ,
Do what seems good to thee .
Remain until thou have weaned him ,
only LORD establish his word .
So the woman remained and gave her son suck ,
until she weaned him .
*
And when she had weaned him ,
she took him up with her ,
with three bullocks ,
and one ephah of meal ,
and a bottle of wine ,
and brought him to the house of LORD in Shiloh ,
and the child was young .
*
And they killed the bullock ,
and brought the child to Eli .
*
And she said ,
Oh ,
my lord ,
as thy soul lives ,
my lord ,
I am the woman who stood by thee here ,
praying to LORD .
*
I prayed for this child ,
and LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him .
*
Therefore also I have granted him to LORD ;
as long as he lives he is granted to LORD .
And he worshipped LORD there .
