1 Samuel 1:15

1:15 But Hannah replied, “That’s not the way it is, ¹  my lord! I am under a great deal of stress. ²  I have drunk neither wine nor beer. Rather, I have poured out my soul to ³  the Lord.

1 Samuel 20:26

20:26 However, Saul said nothing about it ⁴  that day, for he thought, ⁵  “Something has happened to make him ceremonially unclean. Yes, he must be unclean.”

[1:15]  ¹ tn Heb “No.”

[1:15]  ² tn Heb “I am a woman difficult of spirit.” The LXX has “for whom the day is difficult,” apparently mistaking the Hebrew word for “spirit” רוּחַ (ruakh) to be the word for “day” יוֹם (yom).

[1:15]  ³ tn Heb “before.”

[20:26]  ⁴ tn The words “about it” are not present in the Hebrew text, although they are implied.

[20:26]  ⁵ tn Heb “said,” that is, to himself.
