1 Samuel 1:10

1:10 She was very upset 1  as she prayed to the Lord, and she was weeping uncontrollably. 2 

1 tn Heb “she [was in] bitterness of soul.”

2 tn Heb “and weeping, she was weeping.” The infinitive absolute emphasizes the extent of her sorrow. The imperfect verbal form emphasizes the continuation of the action in past time.
