1 Samuel 2:1-10

1And HannahH2584 prayedH6419, and saidH559, My heartH3820 rejoicethH5970 in YhwhH3068, mine hornH7161 is exaltedH7311 in YhwhH3068: my mouthH6310 is enlargedH7337 over mine enemiesH341; because I rejoiceH8055 in thy salvationH3444.

2There is none holyH6918 as YhwhH3068: for there is none besideH1115 thee: neither is there any rockH6697 like our GodH430.

3TalkH1696 no moreH7235 so exceedingH1364 proudlyH1364; let not arrogancyH6277 comeH3318 out of your mouthH6310: for YhwhH3068 is a GodH410 of knowledgeH1844, and by him actionsH5949 are weighedH8505.1

4The bowsH7198 of the mighty menH1368 are brokenH2844, and they that stumbledH3782 are girdedH247 with strengthH2428.

5They that were fullH7649 have hired outH7936 themselves for breadH3899; and they that were hungryH7457 ceasedH2308: so that the barrenH6135 hath bornH3205 sevenH7651; and she that hath manyH7227 childrenH1121 is waxed feebleH535.

6YhwhH3068 killethH4191, and maketh aliveH2421: he bringeth downH3381 to the graveH7585, and bringeth upH5927.

7YhwhH3068 maketh poorH3423, and maketh richH6238: he bringeth lowH8213, andH637 lifteth upH7311.

8He raiseth upH6965 the poorH1800 out of the dustH6083, and lifteth upH7311 the beggarH34 from the dunghillH830, to setH3427 them among princesH5081, and to make them inheritH5157 the throneH3678 of gloryH3519: for the pillarsH4690 of the earthH776 are Yhwh'sH3068, and he hath setH7896 the worldH8398 upon them.

9He will keepH8104 the feetH7272 of his saintsH2623, and the wickedH7563 shall be silentH1826 in darknessH2822; for by strengthH3581 shall no manH376 prevailH1396.

10The adversariesH7378 of YhwhH3068 shall be broken to piecesH2865; out of heavenH8064 shall he thunderH7481 upon them: YhwhH3068 shall judgeH1777 the endsH657 of the earthH776; and he shall giveH5414 strengthH5797 unto his kingH4428, and exaltH7311 the hornH7161 of his anointedH4899.
