Genesis 17:15And God saith unto Abraham, ‘Sarai thy wife—thou dost not call her name Sarai, for Sarah is her name;Genesis 17:16and I have blessed her, and have also given to thee a son from her; and I have blessed her, and she hath become nations—kings of peoples are from her.’Genesis 17:17And Abraham falleth upon his face, and laugheth, and saith in his heart, ‘To the son of an hundred years is one born? or doth Sarah—daughter of ninety years—bear?’Genesis 17:18And Abraham saith unto God, ‘O that Ishmael may live before Thee;’Genesis 17:19and God saith, ‘Sarah thy wife is certainly bearing a son to thee, and thou hast called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a covenant age-during, to his seed after him.Genesis 17:20As to Ishmael, I have heard thee; lo, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes doth he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;Genesis 17:21and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah doth bear to thee at this appointed time in the next year;’Genesis 20:17And Abraham prayeth unto God, and God healeth Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:Genesis 20:18for Jehovah restraining had restrained every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.Genesis 25:21And Isaac maketh entreaty to Jehovah before his wife, for she is barren: and Jehovah is entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceiveth,Genesis 30:22And God remembereth Rachel, and God hearkeneth unto her, and openeth her womb,Genesis 30:23and she conceiveth and beareth a son, and saith, ‘God hath gathered up my reproach;’1 Samuel 1:6and her adversity hath also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for Jehovah hath shut up her womb.1 Samuel 1:7And so he doth year by year, from the time of her going up into the house of Jehovah, so it provoketh her, and she weepeth, and doth not eat.1 Samuel 1:8And Elkanah her husband saith to her, ‘Hannah, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? and why is thy heart afflicted? am I not better to thee than ten sons?’1 Samuel 1:9And Hannah riseth after eating in Shiloh, and after drinking, and Eli the priest is sitting on the throne by the side-post of the temple of Jehovah.1 Samuel 1:10And she is bitter in soul, and prayeth unto Jehovah, and weepeth greatly,1 Samuel 1:11and voweth a vow, and saith, ‘Jehovah of Hosts, if Thou dost certainly look on the affliction of Thy handmaid, and hast remembered me, and dost not forget Thy handmaid, and hast given to Thy handmaid seed of men—then I have given him to Jehovah all days of his life, and a razor doth not go up upon his head.’1 Samuel 1:12And it hath been, when she multiplied praying before Jehovah, that Eli is watching her mouth,1 Samuel 1:13and Hannah, she is speaking to her heart, only her lips are moving, and her voice is not heard, and Eli reckoneth her to be drunken.1 Samuel 1:14And Eli saith unto her, ‘Until when are thou drunken? turn aside thy wine from thee.’1 Samuel 1:15And Hannah answereth and saith, ‘No, my lord, A woman sharply pained in spirit I am, and wine and strong drink I have not drunk, and I pour out my soul before Jehovah;1 Samuel 1:16put not thy handmaid before a daughter of worthlessness, for from the abundance of my meditation, and of my provocation, I have spoken hitherto.’1 Samuel 1:17And Eli answereth and saith, ‘Go in peace, and the God of Israel doth give thy petition which thou hast asked of Him.’1 Samuel 1:18And she saith, ‘Let thy handmaid find grace in thine eyes;’ and the woman goeth on her way, and eateth, and her countenance hath not been sad for it any more.1 Samuel 1:19And they rise early in the morning, and bow themselves before Jehovah, and turn back, and come in unto their house in Ramah, and Elkanah knoweth Hannah his wife, and Jehovah remembereth her;1 Samuel 1:20and it cometh to pass, at the revolution of the days, that Hannah conceiveth, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Samuel, ‘for, from Jehovah I have asked him.’1 Samuel 2:1And Hannah prayeth, and saith: ‘My heart hath exulted in Jehovah, My horn hath been high in Jehovah, My mouth hath been large over mine enemies, For I have rejoiced in Thy salvation.1 Samuel 2:2There is none holy like Jehovah, For there is none save Thee, And there is no rock like our God.1 Samuel 2:3Ye multiply not—ye speak haughtily—The old saying goeth out from your mouth, For a God of knowledge is Jehovah, And by Him actions are weighed.1 Samuel 2:4Bows of the mighty are broken, And the stumbling have girded on strength.1 Samuel 2:5The satiated for bread hired themselves, And the hungry have ceased. While the barren hath borne seven, And she abounding with sons hath languished.1 Samuel 2:6Jehovah putteth to death, and keepeth alive, He bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up.1 Samuel 2:7Jehovah dispossesseth, and He maketh rich, He maketh low, yea, He maketh high.1 Samuel 2:8He raiseth from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He lifteth up the needy, To cause them to sit with nobles, Yea, a throne of honour He doth cause them to inherit, For to Jehovah are the fixtures of earth, And He setteth on them the habitable world.1 Samuel 2:9The feet of His saints He keepeth, And the wicked in darkness are silent, For not by power doth man become mighty.1 Samuel 2:10Jehovah—broken down are His adversaries, Against them in the heavens He thundereth: Jehovah judgeth the ends of earth, And giveth strength to His king, And exalteth the horn of His anointed.’1 Samuel 2:11And Elkanah goeth to Ramath, unto his house, and the youth hath been serving Jehovah, in the presence of Eli the priest;Isaiah 4:1And taken hold have seven women on one man, In that day, saying, ‘Our own bread we do eat, And our own raiment we put on, Only, let thy name be called over us, Remove thou our reproach.’Luke 1:5There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the course of Abijah, and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elisabeth;Luke 1:6and they were both righteous before God, going on in all the commands and righteousnesses of the Lord blameless,Luke 1:7and they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and both were advanced in their days.Luke 1:8And it came to pass, in his acting as priest, in the order of his course before God,Luke 1:9according to the custom of the priesthood, his lot was to make perfume, having gone into the sanctuary of the Lord,Luke 1:10and all the multitude of the people were praying without, at the hour of the perfume.Luke 1:11And there appeared to him a messenger of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of the perfume,Luke 1:12and Zacharias, having seen, was troubled, and fear fell on him;Luke 1:13and the messenger said unto him, ‘Fear not, Zacharias, for thy supplication was heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear a son to thee, and thou shalt call his name John,Luke 1:14and there shall be joy to thee, and gladness, and many at his birth shall joy,Luke 1:15for he shall be great before the Lord, and wine and strong drink he may not drink, and of the Holy Spirit he shall be full, even from his mother’s womb;Luke 1:16and many of the sons of Israel he shall turn to the Lord their God,Luke 1:17and he shall go before Him, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn hearts of fathers unto children, and disobedient ones to the wisdom of righteous ones, to make ready for the Lord, a people prepared.’Luke 1:18And Zacharias said unto the messenger, ‘Whereby shall I know this? for I am aged, and my wife is advanced in her days?’Luke 1:19And the messenger answering said to him, ‘I am Gabriel, who have been standing near before God, and I was sent to speak unto thee, and to proclaim these good news to thee,Luke 1:20and lo, thou shalt be silent, and not able to speak, till the day that these things shall come to pass, because thou didst not believe my words, that shall be fulfilled in their season.’Luke 1:21And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and wondering at his tarrying in the sanctuary,Luke 1:22and having come out, he was not able to speak to them, and they perceived that a vision he had seen in the sanctuary, and he was beckoning to them, and did remain dumb.Luke 1:23And it came to pass, when the days of his service were fulfilled, he went away to his house,Luke 1:24and after those days, his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying—Luke 1:25Thus hath the Lord done to me, in days in which He looked upon me, to take away my reproach among men.’
