1 Samuel 1:6-9 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

6. Her rival would taunt her bitterly to provoke her, because Adonai had closed her womb.

7. So it was year after year, whenever she went up to the House of Adonai, that she would provoke her; so she wept and would not eat.

8. Then her husband Elkanah would say to her, “Hannah, why are you crying? Why won’t you eat? Why is your heart so sad? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”

9. After eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah got up. Now Eli the kohen was sitting on his seat by the doorpost of the Temple of Adonai.
