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 .
* "
No one is holy like the LORD ,
For there is none besides You ,
Nor is there any rock like our God .
* "
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 .
* "
The bows of the mighty men are broken ,
And those who stumbled are girded with strength .
*
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 .
* "
The LORD kills and makes alive ;
He brings down to the grave and brings up .
*
The LORD makes poor and makes rich ;
He brings low and lifts up .
*
He raises the poor from the dust And lifts the beggar from the ash heap ,
To set them among princes And make them inherit the throne of glory . "
For the pillars of the earth are the LORD '
s ,
And He has set the world upon them .
*
He will guard the feet of His saints ,
But the wicked shall be silent in darkness . "
For by strength no man shall prevail .
*
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken in pieces ;
From heaven He will thunder against them .
The LORD will judge the ends of the earth . "
He will give strength to His king ,
And exalt the horn of His anointed ."

Then Elkanah went to his house at Ramah .
But the child ministered to the LORD before Eli the priest .
