1 Samuel 1:22

1:22 but Hannah did not go up with them. ¹  Instead she told her husband, “Once the boy is weaned, I will bring him and appear before the Lord, and he will remain there from then on.”

Psalms 131:2

131:2 Indeed ²  I am composed and quiet, ³ 

like a young child carried by its mother; ⁴ 

I am content like the young child I carry. ⁵ 

Hosea 1:8

1:8 When ⁶  she had weaned ‘No Pity’ (Lo-Ruhamah) she conceived again and gave birth to another son.

[1:22]  ¹ tn The disjunctive clause is contrastive here. The words “with them” have been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[131:2]  ² tn Or “but.”

[131:2]  ³ tn Heb “I make level and make quiet my soul.”

[131:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “like a weaned [one] upon his mother.”

[131:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “like the weaned [one] upon me, my soul.”

[1:8]  ⁶ tn The preterite וַתִּגְמֹל (vatigmol, literally, “and she weaned”) functions in a synchronic sense with the following preterite וַתַּהַר (vattahar, literally, “and she conceived”) and may be treated in translation as a dependent temporal clause: “When she had weaned…she conceived” (cf. KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV). Other English versions render this as sequential with “After” (NAB, NIV, TEV, NLT).
