1 Samuel 2:1-10

THE PRAYER OF PRAISE OF HANNAH
And Hannah prays and says, My heart jumps for joy in Yah Veh; my horn exalts in Yah Veh: my mouth enlarges over my enemies because I cheer in your salvation. 2 None is holy as Yah Veh - none except you: - no rock like our Elohim. 3 Neither abound your word so high and lofty; nor comes impudence from your mouth: for Yah Veh is an El of knowledge and by him are exploits gauged. 4 The bows of the mighty are crushed, and they who stumble gird with valour: 5 the satisfied hire themselves out for bread; and they who famish, cease: so that the sterile births seven; and she with many sons, languishes. 6 Yah Veh deathifies, and enlivens; he descends to sheol, and ascends: 7 Yah Veh dispossesses, and enriches; he abases, and lifts: 8 he raises the poor from the dust; and lifts the needy from the dunghill - to set them among volunteers - to inherit the throne of honor: for the pillars of the earth are unto Yah Veh and on them he set the world. 9 He guards the feet of his mercied and the wicked hush in darkness; for no man prevails mightily by force. 10 Yah Veh - his contenders terrify; from the heavens he thunders on them: Yah Veh rules the finality of the earth; he gives his sovereign strength and exalts the horn of his anointed.
