1. Samuelsbok 1,6

Envy and jealousyGriefConflict and reconciliation

4 Hver gang Elkana ofret, ga han deler av kjøttet til sin kone Peninna og til alle hennes sønner og døtre.

5 Men til Hanna ga han en dobbel del, for han elsket henne, selv om Herren ikke hadde gitt henne barn.

Hennes rival provoserte henne bittert for å gjøre henne opprørt, fordi Herren hadde lukket hennes livmor.

7 Dette skjedde år etter år. Hver gang Hanna dro opp til Herrens hus, provoserte hennes rival henne, og hun gråt og ville ikke spise.

8 Elkana, hennes mann, sa til henne: “Hanna, hvorfor gråter du? Hvorfor vil du ikke spise? Hvorfor er du så nedtrykt? Er jeg ikke bedre for deg enn ti sønner?”
