The whole interlinear chapter
1 Sam. 1:2      1 Sam. 1:4

First Samuel 1:3

And this man [Elkanah] went up from his city year after year (literally: "from day to day") [i.e., every appointed day of the Lord (Yahweh) – the three annual feasts of the Lord (Yahweh)], to worship and sacrifice to the Lord of Hosts (Yahweh Sebaot) in Shiloh [15 km north of Bethel, see Josh. 18:1]. Eli's two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, were priests of the Lord (Yahweh) there.
[This is the first time God's name, Lord of Hosts, is used. Yahweh is God's personal name. Sebaoth is the feminine form of the Hebrew word Tsava, which means army, battle, or war. The combination of these two names describes an almighty and all-powerful God.]
