1 Samuel 1:11-13

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹¹ She made this vow: ‘O Lord of hosts, if only you will look on the misery of your servant, and remember me, and not forget your servant, but will give to your servant a male child, then I will set him before you as a nazirite^[a] until the day of his death. He shall drink neither wine nor intoxicants,^[b] and no razor shall touch his head.’

¹² As she continued praying before the Lord, Eli observed her mouth. ¹³ Hannah was praying silently; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard; therefore Eli thought she was drunk.
