Hannah also prayed and said,<\/p>\n
\u201cMy heart exults in the Lord;
\n my strength is exalted in the Lord.
\nMy mouth derides my enemies,
\n because I rejoice in thy salvation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is none holy like the Lord,
\n there is none besides thee;
\n there is no rock like our God.
\nTalk no more so very proudly,
\n let not arrogance come from your mouth;
\nfor the Lord is a God of knowledge,
\n and by him actions are weighed.
\n The bows of the mighty are broken,
\n but the feeble gird on strength.
\nThose who were full have hired themselves out for bread,
\n but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger.
\nThe barren has borne seven,
\n but she who has many children is forlorn.
The Lord kills and brings to life;
\n he brings down to Sheol and raises up.
\nThe Lord makes poor and makes rich;
\n he brings low, he also exalts.
\nHe raises up the poor from the dust;
\n he lifts the needy from the ash heap,
\nto make them sit with princes
\n and inherit a seat of honor.
\nFor the pillars of the earth are the Lord\u2019s,
\n and on them he has set the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe will guard the feet of his faithful ones;
\n but the wicked shall be cut off in darkness;
\n for not by might shall a man prevail.
\nThe adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces;
\n against them he will thunder in heaven.
\nThe Lord will judge the ends of the earth;
\n he will give strength to his king,
\n and exalt the power of his anointed.\u201d\u009d<\/p>\n
