1 Then Hannah prayed and said,
“My heart exults in the LORD;
Mya I.e. strengthhorn is exalted in the LORD,
My mouthb Lit is enlargedspeaks boldly against my enemies,
Because I rejoice in Your salvation.
 2 “There is no one holy like the LORD,
Indeed, there is no one besides You,
Nor is there any rock like our God.
 3 “c Lit Talk muchBoast no more so very proudly,
Do not let arrogance come out of your mouth;
For the LORD is a God of knowledge,
And with Him actions are weighed.
 4 “The bows of the mighty are shattered,
But the feeble gird on strength.
 5 “Those who were full hire themselves out for bread,
But those who were hungry cease to hunger.
Even the barren gives birth to seven,
But she who has many children languishes.
 6 “The LORD kills and makes alive;
He brings down tod I.e. the nether worldSheol and raises up.
 7 “The LORD makes poor and rich;
He brings low, He also exalts.
 8 “He raises the poor from the dust,
He lifts the needy from the ash heap
To make them sit with nobles,
And inherit a seat of honor;
For the pillars of the earth are the LORD’S,
And He set the world on them.
 9 “He keeps the feet of His godly ones,
But the wicked ones are silenced in darkness;
For not by might shall a man prevail.
 10 “Those who contend with the LORD will be shattered;
Against them He will thunder in the heavens,
The LORD will judge the ends of the earth;
And He will give strength to His king,
And will exalt thee I.e. strengthhorn of His anointed.”
