1 Samuel 1:5-8
5
But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb.
6
And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the LORD had shut up her womb.
7
And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
8
Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?
