4. And the day came, and Helkana sacrificed, and gave portions to his wife Phennana and her children.
5. And to Anna he gave

Gr. seed of men
man-child, then will I indeed dedicate him
Gr. before
to thee till the day of his death; and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink, and no
Gr. iron
razor shall come upon his head.

12. And it came to pass, while she was long praying before the Lord, that Heli the priest marked her mouth.
13. And she was speaking in her heart, and her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: and Heli accounted her a drunken woman.
14. And the servant of Heli said to her, How long wilt thou be drunken? take away thy wine from thee, and go out from the presence of the Lord.
15. And Anna answered and said, Nay, my lord, I live
Compare en sklhra huera
in a hard day, and I have not drunk wine or strong drink, and I pour out my soul before the Lord.

Gr. in the season of days
when the time was come, that she brought forth a son, and called his name Samuel, and said, Because I asked him of the Lord God of Sabaoth.

22. But Anna did not go up with him, for she said to her husband, I will not go up until the child goes up, when I have weaned him, and he shall be presented before the Lord, and he shall abide there continually.
23. And Helkana her husband said to her, Do that which is good in thine eyes, abide still until thou shalt have weaned him; but may the Lord establish that which comes out of thy mouth: and the woman tarried, and suckled her son until she had weaned him.
24. And she went up with him to Selom with a calf
Or, in its third year
of three years old, and loaves, and an ephah of fine flour, and a bottle of wine: and she entered into the house of the Lord in Selom, and the child with them.

25. And they brought him before the Lord; and his father slew his offering which he offered from year to year to the Lord; and he brought near the child, and slew the calf; and Anna the mother of the child brought him to Heli.
26. And she said, I pray thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, I am the woman that stood in thy presence with thee while praying to the Lord.
