1 And Hannah will pray and say, My heart rejoiced in Jehovah, my horn was lifted up in Jehovah; my mouth was enlarged over mine enemies; for I was glad in thy salvation.

2 None holy as Jehovah, for none beside thee: and no rock as our God.

3 Ye shall not enlarge; will ye speak proud, proud? shall the impatient thing come forth from your mouth for Jehovah a God of knowledge, and doings were not made equal.

4 The bows of the mighty being broken, and the weak were girded with strength.

5 And those filled with bread hired themselves out; and they hungering, ceased till the barren shall bring forth seven; and she multiplying sons languished.

6 Jehovah killing and giving life; bringing down to hades and bringing up.

7 Jehovah dispossessing, and enriching: making low, but lifting up.

8 Raising up the weak from the dust, he will raise up the needy from the dung-hill to sit with the noble, and he will cause them to inherit a throne of glory, for to Jehovah the castings of the earth, and he will put the habitable globe upon them.
