1 Samuel 1:25 in context

  1. 23Elkanah her husband said to her, “Do what seems good to you. Wait until you have weaned him; only may Yahweh establish his word.”
    So the woman waited and nursed her son until she weaned him.
  2. 24When she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bulls, and one ephah of meal, and a container of wine, and brought him to Yahweh’s house in Shiloh. The child was young.
  3. 25They killed the bull, and brought the child to Eli.
  4. 26She said, “Oh, my lord, as your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman who stood by you here, praying to Yahweh.
  5. 27I prayed for this child, and Yahweh has given me my petition which I asked of him.
