1 And Hannah prayed and said, |My heart rejoices in the LORD. My strength rises up in my God. My mouth boasts over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation. 2 Truly, there is no one as holy as the LORD. Truly, there is no one besides you, nor is there any rock like our God. 3 Do not speak boastfully or let arrogance come out of your mouth, for the LORD is a God of knowledge. By him actions are weighed. 4 The bows of the mighty men are broken. Those who stumbled are armed with strength. 5 Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread. Those who were hungry are satisfied. Even the barren has borne seven, and she who has many children languishes. 6 The LORD kills, and makes alive. He brings down to Sheol, and brings up. 7 The LORD makes poor, and makes rich. He brings low, he also lifts up. 1 Samuel 2:1-7, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
