13For Hannah's prayer came from her heart, and though her lips were moving she made no sound: so it seemed to Eli that she was overcome with wine.
14And Eli said to her, How long are you going to be the worse for drink? Put away the effects of your wine from you.
15And Hannah, answering him, said, No, my lord, I am a woman whose spirit is broken with sorrow: I have not taken wine or strong drink, but I have been opening my heart before the Lord.
16Do not take your servant to be a good-for-nothing woman: for my words have come from my stored-up sorrow and pain.
17Then Eli said to her, Go in peace: and may the God of Israel give you an answer to the prayer you have made to him.
18And she said, May your servant have grace in your eyes. So the woman went away, and took part in the feast, and her face was no longer sad.
19And early in the morning they got up, and after worshipping before the Lord they went back to Ramah, to their house: and Elkanah had connection with his wife; and the Lord kept her in mind.
