1 Samuel 1:4-6

Expanded Bible

⁴ ·When [^LOn the day] Elkanah offered sacrifices, he always gave ·a share of the meat [portions] to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters. ⁵ But Elkanah always gave Hannah ·a double portion of the meat because he loved her and the Lord had kept her from having children [or only one portion of the meat even though he loved her, because the Lord had kept her from having children; ^Conly one portion would be needed since there was no child to feed]. ⁶ ·Peninnah [^LHer rival/foe] would ·tease [taunt] Hannah and ·upset [provoke; irritate; make fun of] her, because the Lord had ·made her unable to have children [^Lclosed her womb].
