સમય પસાર થતાં એમ થયું કે, હાન્ના ગર્ભવતી થઈ. પછી દીકરાને જન્મ આપ્યો. તેણે તેનું નામ શમુએલ રાખ્યું. અને કહ્યું, “મેં તેને ઈશ્વર પાસેથી માગી લીધો છે.”
हिन्दी1 शमूएल १:२०
तब हन्ना गर्भवती हुई और समय पर उसके एक पुत्र हुआ, और उसका नाम शमूएल रखा, क्योंकि वह कहने लगी, “मैंने यहोवा से माँगकर इसे पाया है।”

In context

18She said, “Let your servant find favor in your sight.” So the woman went her way and ate; and her facial expression wasn’t sad any more.

19They rose up in the morning early and worshiped the LORD, then returned and came to their house to Ramah. Then Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.

20When the time had come, Hannah conceived, and bore a son; and she named him Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked him of the LORD.”

21The man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice and his vow.

22But Hannah didn’t go up, for she said to her husband, “Not until the child is weaned; then I will bring him, that he may appear before the LORD, and stay there forever.”
