1 Samuel 2:3-5

3 1Boast no more so very proudly, 2Do not let arrogance come out of your mouth; 3For the Lord is a God of knowledge, 4And with Him actions are weighed.4 5The bows of the mighty are shattered, 6But the feeble gird on strength.5Those who were full hire themselves out for bread, But those who were hungry cease to hunger. 7Even the barren gives birth to seven, But 8she who has many children languishes.
