Greetings

I have a few questions concerning 1 Sam. 1:27:

1. WAY.I$:T.AXW is 3ms pointing to Eli worshipping, but some MT MSS read 
Y.I$:T.:EXWU does that 1cp ending indicate that Eli and Hannah  are bowing 
and worshipping? (Sorry if :E above is incorrect it is a composite shewa)

2. 4QSam(a) reads WT$TX[W] How would you translate this reading and who 
would be bowing down and worshipping?


Thanks
