21 The man Elkanah and all his household went up to offer to the Lord the yearly sacrifice and to pay his vow.(B) 22 But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, “As soon as the child is weaned, I will bring him, that he may appear in the presence of the Lord and remain there forever; I will offer him as a nazirite for all time.”[a](C)
