וְכִעֲסַתָּה צָרָתָהּ גַּם כַּעַס בַּעֲבוּר הַרְעִמָהּ כִּי סָגַר יְהֹוָה בְּעַד רַחְמָהּ: שמואל א א: ו |

| I can't believe you don't have babies. I have so many and you have none. (Peninnah thinks: Why does Elkanah love her more?) | |
|
| Stop picking on me. (Chana thinking: I wish I had a baby.) | |

וַיֹּאמֶר לָהּ אֶלְקָנָה אִישָׁהּ חַנָּה לָמֶה תִבְכִּי וְלָמֶה לֹא תֹאכְלִי וְלָמֶה יֵרַע לְבָבֵךְ הֲלוֹא אָנֹכִי טוֹב לָךְ מֵעֲשָׂרָה בָּנִים שמואל א א: ח |
|
| Why are you sad? Aren't I better than ten sons? | |
|
| (Chana thinks: I am so sad why can't I have a baby?) | |

וְחַנָּה הִיא מְדַבֶּרֶת עַל לִבָּהּ רַק שְׂפָתֶיהָ נָּעוֹת וְקוֹלָהּ לֹא יִשָּׁמֵעַ וַיַּחְשְׁבֶהָ עֵלִי לְשִׁכֹּרָה: שמואל א א: יג |
|
| Are you drunk? | |
|
| Dear God, if you give me the privilege of having a child, he will be your servant. | |
