²⁷ For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my petition which I asked of him:

¹¹ 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.

¹² And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth.

¹³ Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.

⁹ The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

¹⁹ But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

²⁰ Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.

¹ I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.

² Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.

³ The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

⁴ Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

⁵ Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.

⁵ I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place.

⁷ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

¹⁵ And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
