1 Samuel 1:7-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁷ Year after year, when Hannah went up to the Lord’s house, her rival taunted her, so Hannah would weep and would not eat. ⁸ Her husband Elkanah said to her, “Hannah, why are you weeping? Why don’t you eat? Why is your heart so sad? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”

⁹ Once, when they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah stood up. Eli the priest was sitting on his chair by the doorpost of the Lord’s temple.
