1 Samuel 2:1-10

1Then Hannah 1prayed and said, “My heart exults in the Lord; 2My 3horn is exalted in the Lord, My mouth 4speaks boldly against my enemies, Because 5I rejoice in Your salvation.26There is no one holy like the Lord, Indeed, 7there is no one besides You, 8Nor is there any rock like our God.39Boast no more so very proudly, 10Do not let arrogance come out of your mouth; 11For the Lord is a God of knowledge, 12And with Him actions are weighed.413The bows of the mighty are shattered, 14But the feeble gird on strength.5Those who were full hire themselves out for bread, But those who were hungry cease to hunger. 15Even the barren gives birth to seven, But 16she who has many children languishes.617The Lord kills and makes alive; 18He brings down to 19Sheol and raises up.720The Lord makes poor and rich; 21He brings low, He also exalts.822He raises the poor from the dust, 23He lifts the needy from the ash heap 24To make them sit with nobles, And inherit a seat of honor; 25For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, And He set the world on them.926He keeps the feet of His godly ones, 27But the wicked ones are silenced in darkness; 28For not by might shall a man prevail.1029Those who contend with the Lord will be shattered; 30Against them He will thunder in the heavens, 31The Lord will judge the ends of the earth; 32And He will give strength to His king, 33And will exalt the 34horn of His anointed.”
