In Context

9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest was sitting on his seat by the doorpost of the temple of Yahweh.

10 She was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to Yahweh, and wept bitterly.

11 She vowed a vow, and said, |Yahweh of Armies, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your handmaid, and remember me, and not forget your handmaid, but will give to your handmaid a boy, then I will give him to Yahweh all the days of his life, and no razor shall come on his head.|

12 It happened, as she continued praying before Yahweh, that Eli saw her mouth.

13 Now Hannah spoke in her heart. Only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.

14 Eli said to her, |How long will you be drunken? Put away your wine from you.|
