She was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to Yahweh, and wept bitterly.
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."
It happened, as she continued praying before Yahweh, that Eli saw her mouth.

Eli said to her, "How long will you be drunken? Put away your wine from you."
Hannah answered, "No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before Yahweh.
Don't count your handmaid for a wicked woman; for I have been speaking out of the abundance of my complaint and my provocation."
