1 Samuel 1:22-24
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
22 But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, “As soon as the child is weaned, I will bring him, that he may appear in the presence of the Lord, and remain there forever; I will offer him as a nazirite[a] for all time.”[b] 23 Her husband Elkanah said to her, “Do what seems best to you, wait until you have weaned him; only—may the Lord establish his word.”[c] So the woman remained and nursed her son, until she weaned him. 24 When she had weaned him, she took him up with her, along with a three-year-old bull,[d] an ephah of flour, and a skin of wine. She brought him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh; and the child was young.

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.
