1 Samuel 1:18-20

New International Version - UK

¹⁸ She said, ‘May your servant find favour in your eyes.’ Then she went her way and ate something, and her face was no longer downcast.

¹⁹ Early the next morning they arose and worshipped before the Lord and then went back to their home at Ramah. Elkanah made love to his wife Hannah, and the Lord remembered her. ²⁰ So in the course of time Hannah became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel,^[a] saying, ‘Because I asked the Lord for him.’
