1 Samuel 1:23

1:23 So her husband Elkanah said to her, “Do what you think best. 1  Stay until you have weaned him. May the Lord fulfill his promise.” 2 

So the woman stayed and nursed her son until she had weaned him.

1 Samuel 19:5

19:5 He risked his life 3  when he struck down the Philistine and the Lord gave all Israel a great victory. When you saw it, you were happy. So why would you sin against innocent blood by putting David to death for no reason?”

1 tn Heb “what is good in your eyes.”

2 tn Heb “establish his word.” This apparently refers to the promise inherent in Eli’s priestly blessing (see v. 17).

3 tn Heb “and he put his life into his hand.”
