ગુજરાતી1 શમુએલ ૧:૨૩
એલ્કાનાએ તેને કહ્યું, “તને જે સારું લાગે તે કર.” તું તેને દૂધ છોડાવે ત્યાં સુધી રાહ જો; એટલું જ કે ઈશ્વર પોતાનું વચન પરિપૂર્ણ કરો.” માટે તે સ્ત્રી ત્યાં રહી અને પોતાના દીકરાનું દૂધ છોડાવ્યું ત્યાં સુધી તેનું પોષણ કર્યું.
हिन्दी1 शमूएल १:२३
उसके पति एल्काना ने उससे कहा, “जो तुझे भला लगे वही कर जब तक तू उसका दूध न छुड़ाए तब तक यहीं ठहरी रह; केवल इतना हो कि यहोवा अपना वचन पूरा करे।” इसलिए वह स्त्री वहीं घर पर रह गई और अपने पुत्र के दूध छूटने के समय तक उसको पिलाती रही।

In context

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.”

23Elkanah her husband said to her, “Do what seems good to you. Wait until you have weaned him; only may the LORD establish his word.” So the woman waited and nursed her son until she weaned him.

24When she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bulls, and one ephah of meal, and a container of wine, and brought him to the LORD’s house in Shiloh. The child was young.

25They killed the bull, and brought the child to Eli.
