Only may the Lord do as He has said.” So Hannah stayed and nursed her son until he no longer needed to be nursed. 24 When she had finished nursing him, she took him with her to the house of the Lord in Shiloh, and the child was young.

1 Samuel 1:22-24
New International Version
22 Hannah did not go. She said to her husband, “After the boy is weaned, I will take him and present(A) him before the Lord, and he will live there always.”[a]
23 “Do what seems best to you,” her husband Elkanah told her. “Stay here until you have weaned him; only may the Lord make good(B) his[b] word.” So the woman stayed at home and nursed her son until she had weaned(C) him.
24 After he was weaned, she took the boy with her, young as he was, along with a three-year-old bull,[c](D) an ephah[d] of flour and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh.
