she communed with him of all that was in her heart .

and the sitting of his servants ,

Blessed be Jehovah thy God ,
who delighted in thee ,
to set thee on his throne ,
to be king for Jehovah thy God :
because thy God loved Israel ,
to establish them for ever ,
therefore made he thee king over them ,
to do justice and righteousness .

So she turned ,
