Strong's Number H511 matches the Hebrew אֶלְקָנָה ('elqānâ),
which occurs 21 times in 20 verses
in the WLC Hebrew.
There was a man from Ramathaim-zophim in[fn] the hill country of Ephraim. His name was Elkanah son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
Whenever Elkanah offered a sacrifice, he always gave portions of the meat to his wife Peninnah and to each of her sons and daughters.
“Hannah, why are you crying? ” her husband, Elkanah, would ask. “Why won’t you eat? Why are you troubled? Am I not better to you than ten sons? ”
The next morning Elkanah and Hannah got up early to worship before the LORD. Afterward, they returned home to Ramah. Then Elkanah was intimate with his wife Hannah, and the LORD remembered her.
When Elkanah and all his household went up to make the annual sacrifice and his vow offering to the LORD,
Her husband, Elkanah, replied, “Do what you think is best, and stay here until you’ve weaned him. May the LORD confirm your[fn] word.” So Hannah stayed there and nursed her son until she weaned him.
Elkanah went home to Ramah, but the boy served the LORD in the presence of the priest Eli.
Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife: “May the LORD give you children by this woman in place of the one she[fn] has given to the LORD.” Then they would go home.
Obadiah son of Shemaiah, son of Galal, son of Jeduthun;
and Berechiah son of Asa, son of Elkanah who lived in the settlements of the Netophathites.
