"Her rival provoked her severely, to make her fret, because Yahweh had shut up her womb."
— 1 Samuel 1:6, World English Bible
“And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.”
“And her rival provoked her sore, to make her fret, because Jehovah had shut up her womb. ”
“Her rival used to aggravate her to the point of exasperation, just to irritate her, since the LORD had not enabled her to have children.”
“Her rival also afflicted her, and troubled her exceedingly, insomuch that she upbraided her, that the Lord had shut up her womb:”
“And the other wife did everything possible to make her unhappy, because the Lord had not let her have children;”
“And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.”
This man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to Yahweh of Armies in Shiloh. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to Yahweh, were there.
When the day came that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:
but to Hannah he gave a double portion; for he loved Hannah, but Yahweh had shut up her womb.
Her rival provoked her severely, to make her fret, because Yahweh had shut up her womb.
[as] he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of Yahweh, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
Elkanah her husband said to her, "Hannah, why do you weep? Why don't you eat? Why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"
So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest was sitting on his seat by the doorpost of the temple of Yahweh.
