- 許願說、萬軍之耶和華阿、你若垂顧婢女的苦情、眷念不忘婢女、賜我一個兒子、我必使他終身歸與耶和華、不用剃頭刀剃他的頭。
- 哈拿在耶和華面前不住的祈禱、以利定睛看他的嘴。
- 原來哈拿心中默禱、只動嘴唇不出聲音、因此以利以為他喝醉了。
- 以利對他說、你要醉到幾時呢、你不應該喝酒。
- 哈拿回答說、主阿、不是這樣、我是心裡愁苦的婦人、清酒濃酒都沒有喝、但在耶和華面前傾心吐意。

- And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.
- And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth.
- Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.
- And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.
- And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.
