1 And Hannah prayed and said:“My heart rejoices in the Lord;My horn is exalted in the Lord.I smile at my enemies,Because I rejoice in Your salvation.
2 “No one is holy like the Lord,For there is none besides You,Nor is there any rock like our God.
3 “Talk no more so very proudly;Let no arrogance come from your mouth,For the Lord is the God of knowledge;And by Him actions are weighed.
4 “The bows of the mighty men are broken,And those who stumbled are girded with strength.
5 Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,And the hungry have ceased to hunger.Even the barren has borne seven,And she who has many children has become feeble.
6 “The Lord kills and makes alive;He brings down to the grave and brings up.
7 The Lord makes poor and makes rich;He brings low and lifts up.
