King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Now there was[H1961] a certain[H259] man[H376] of[H4480] Ramathaim-zophim,[H7436] of mount[H4480] [H2022] Ephraim,[H669] and his name[H8034] was Elkanah,[H511] the son[H1121] of Jeroham,[H3395] the son[H1121] of Elihu,[H453] the son[H1121] of Tohu,[H8459] the son[H1121] of Zuph,[H6689] an Ephrathite.[H673]

2. And he had two[H8147] wives;[H802] the name[H8034] of the one[H259] was Hannah,[H2584] and the name[H8034] of the other[H8145] Peninnah:[H6444] and Peninnah[H6444] had[H1961] children,[H3206] but Hannah[H2584] had no[H369] children.[H3206]

3. And this[H1931] man[H376] went up[H5927] out of his city[H4480] [H5892] yearly[H4480] [H3117] [H3117] to worship[H7812] and to sacrifice[H2076] unto the LORD[H3068] of hosts[H6635] in Shiloh.[H7887] And the two[H8147] sons[H1121] of Eli,[H5941] Hophni[H2652] and Phinehas,[H6372] the priests[H3548] of the LORD,[H3068] were there.[H8033]

4. And when the time[H3117] was[H1961] that Elkanah[H511] offered,[H2076] he gave[H5414] to Peninnah[H6444] his wife,[H802] and to all[H3605] her sons[H1121] and her daughters,[H1323] portions: [H4490]

5. But unto Hannah[H2584] he gave[H5414] a[H259] worthy[H639] portion;[H4490] for[H3588] he loved[H157] [H853] Hannah:[H2584] but the LORD[H3068] had shut up[H5462] her womb.[H7358]

6. And her adversary[H6869] also[H1571] provoked[H3707] her sore,[H3708] for to[H5668] make her fret,[H7481] because[H3588] the LORD[H3068] had shut up[H5462] [H1157] her womb.[H7358]

7. And as he did[H6213] so[H3651] year[H8141] by year,[H8141] when[H4480] [H1767] she went up[H5927] to the house[H4480] [H1004] of the LORD,[H3068] so[H3651] she provoked[H3707] her; therefore she wept,[H1058] and did not[H3808] eat.[H398]

8. Then said[H559] Elkanah[H511] her husband[H376] to her, Hannah,[H2584] why[H4100] weepest[H1058] thou? and why[H4100] eatest[H398] thou not?[H3808] and why[H4100] is thy heart[H3824] grieved?[H7489] am not[H3808] I[H595] better[H2896] to thee than ten[H4480] [H6235] sons?[H1121]

9. So Hannah[H2584] rose up[H6965] after[H310] they had eaten[H398] in Shiloh,[H7887] and after[H310] they had drunk.[H8354] Now Eli[H5941] the priest[H3548] sat[H3427] upon[H5921] a seat[H3678] by[H5921] a post[H4201] of the temple[H1964] of the LORD.[H3068]

10. And she[H1931] was in bitterness[H4751] of soul,[H5315] and prayed[H6419] unto[H5921] the LORD,[H3068] and wept sore.[H1058] [H1058]

11. And she vowed[H5087] a vow,[H5088] and said,[H559] O LORD[H3068] of hosts,[H6635] if[H518] thou wilt indeed look[H7200] [H7200] on the affliction[H6040] of thine handmaid,[H519] and remember[H2142] me, and not[H3808] forget[H7911] [H853] thine handmaid,[H519] but wilt give[H5414] unto thine handmaid[H519] a man[H376] child,[H2233] then I will give[H5414] him unto the LORD[H3068] all[H3605] the days[H3117] of his life,[H2416] and there shall no[H3808] razor[H4177] come[H5927] upon[H5921] his head.[H7218]

12. And it came to pass,[H1961] as[H3588] she continued[H7235] praying[H6419] before[H6440] the LORD,[H3068] that Eli[H5941] marked[H8104] [H853] her mouth.[H6310]

13. Now Hannah,[H2584] she[H1931] spoke[H1696] in[H5921] her heart;[H3820] only[H7535] her lips[H8193] moved,[H5128] but her voice[H6963] was not[H3808] heard:[H8085] therefore Eli[H5941] thought[H2803] she had been drunken.[H7910]

14. And Eli[H5941] said[H559] unto[H413] her, How[H5704] long[H4970] wilt thou be drunken?[H7937] put away[H5493] [H853] thy wine[H3196] from[H4480] [H5921] thee.

15. And Hannah[H2584] answered[H6030] and said,[H559] No,[H3808] my lord,[H113] I am a woman[H802] of a sorrowful[H7186] spirit:[H7307] I[H595] have drunk[H8354] neither[H3808] wine[H3196] nor strong drink,[H7941] but have poured out[H8210] [H853] my soul[H5315] before[H6440] the LORD.[H3068]

16. Count[H5414] not[H408] [H853] thine handmaid[H519] for[H6440] a daughter of Belial:[H1323] [H1100] for[H3588] out of the abundance[H4480] [H7230] of my complaint[H7879] and grief[H3708] have I spoken[H1696] hitherto.[H5704] [H6258]

17. Then Eli[H5941] answered[H6030] and said,[H559] Go[H1980] in peace:[H7965] and the God[H430] of Israel[H3478] grant[H5414] thee[H853] thy petition[H7596] that[H834] thou hast asked[H7592] of[H4480] [H5973] him.

18. And she said,[H559] Let thine handmaid[H8198] find[H4672] grace[H2580] in thy sight.[H5869] So the woman[H802] went[H1980] her way,[H1870] and did eat,[H398] and her countenance[H6440] was[H1961] no[H3808] more[H5750] sad.

19. And they rose up in the morning early,[H7925] [H1242] and worshiped[H7812] before[H6440] the LORD,[H3068] and returned,[H7725] and came[H935] to[H413] their house[H1004] to Ramah:[H7414] and Elkanah[H511] knew[H3045] [H853] Hannah[H2584] his wife;[H802] and the LORD[H3068] remembered[H2142] her.

20. Wherefore it came to pass,[H1961] when the time[H3117] was come[H8622] about after Hannah[H2584] had conceived,[H2029] that she bore[H3205] a son,[H1121] and called[H7121] [H853] his name[H8034] Samuel,[H8050] saying, Because[H3588] I have asked[H7592] him of the LORD.[H4480] [H3068]

21. And the man[H376] Elkanah,[H511] and all[H3605] his house,[H1004] went up[H5927] to offer[H2076] unto the LORD[H3068] [H853] the yearly[H3117] sacrifice,[H2077] and his vow.[H5088]

22. But Hannah[H2584] went not up;[H5927] [H3808] for[H3588] she said[H559] unto her husband,[H376] I will not go up until[H5704] the child[H5288] be weaned,[H1580] and then I will bring[H935] him, that he may appear[H7200] [H853] before[H6440] the LORD,[H3068] and there[H8033] abide[H3427] forever.[H5704] [H5769]

23. And Elkanah[H511] her husband[H376] said[H559] unto her, Do[H6213] what seemeth[H5869] thee good;[H2896] tarry[H3427] until[H5704] thou have weaned[H1580] him; only[H389] the LORD[H3068] establish[H6965] [H853] his word.[H1697] So the woman[H802] abode,[H3427] and gave her son suck[H3243] [H853] [H1121] until[H5704] she weaned[H1580] him.

24. And when[H834] she had weaned[H1580] him, she took him up[H5927] with[H5973] her, with three[H7969] bullocks,[H6499] and one[H259] ephah[H374] of flour,[H7058] and a bottle[H5035] of wine,[H3196] and brought[H935] him unto the house[H1004] of the LORD[H3068] in Shiloh:[H7887] and the child[H5288] was young.[H5288]

25. And they slew[H7819] [H853] a bullock,[H6499] and brought[H935] [H853] the child[H5288] to[H413] Eli.[H5941]

26. And she said,[H559] Oh[H994] my lord,[H113] as thy soul[H5315] liveth,[H2416] my lord,[H113] I[H589] am the woman[H802] that stood[H5324] by[H5973] thee here,[H2088] praying[H6419] unto[H413] the LORD.[H3068]

27. For[H413] this[H2088] child[H5288] I prayed;[H6419] and the LORD[H3068] hath given[H5414] me[H853] my petition[H7596] which[H834] I asked[H7592] of[H4480] [H5973] him:

28. Therefore also[H1571] I[H595] have lent[H7592] him to the LORD;[H3068] as long[H3605] as[H834] he liveth[H3117] he[H1931] shall be[H1961] lent[H7592] to the LORD.[H3068] And he worshiped[H7812] the LORD[H3068] there.[H8033]
