'Petition' in the Bible

Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace; and the God of Israel grant thy petition that thou hast asked of him.

For this child I prayed; and Jehovah hath given me my petition which I asked of him:

And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Jehovah give thee seed of this woman for the petition which was asked of Jehovah. And they went unto their own home.
