Psalm 116:12-19
12What will I give to Yahweh for all his benefits toward me? 13I will take the cup of salvation, and call on Yahweh’s name. 14I will pay my vows to Yahweh, yes, in the presence of all his people. 15Precious in Yahweh’s sight is the death of his saints. 16Yahweh, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant. You have freed me from my chains. 17I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on Yahweh’s name. 18I will pay my vows to Yahweh, yes, in the presence of all his people, 19in the courts of Yahweh’s house, in the middle of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah! WEB 1 Samuel 1:1-8 1 There was a certain man from Ramah of Zophim, on Mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. 2 And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the second was Peninnah. And Peninnah had sons. But Hannah did not have children. 3 And this man went up from his city, on the established days, so that he might adore and sacrifice to the Lord of hosts at Shiloh. Now the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord, were in that place. 4 Then the day arrived, and Elkanah immolated. And he gave portions to his wife Peninnah, and to all her sons and daughters. 5 But to Hannah he gave one portion with sorrow. For he loved Hannah, but the Lord had closed her womb. 6 And her rival afflicted her and vehemently distressed her, to a great extent, for she rebuked her that the Lord had closed her womb. 7 And she did so every year, when the time returned for them to ascend to the temple of the Lord. And she provoked her in this way. And so, she wept and did not take food. 8 Therefore, her husband Elkanah said to her: "Hannah, why are you weeping? And why do you not eat? And for what reason do you afflict your heart? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"
