1 Samuel 1:7-9

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Whenever she went up to the Lord’s house,^(A) her rival taunted her in this way every year. Hannah wept and would not eat. ⁸ “Hannah, why are you crying?” her husband Elkanah asked. “Why won’t you eat? Why are you troubled? Am I not better to you than 10 sons?”^(B)

⁹ Hannah got up after they ate and drank at Shiloh.^[a] Eli the priest was sitting on a chair by the doorpost of the Lord’s tabernacle.^(C)
