1
Hannah prayed, and said: My heart exults in Yahweh; My horn is exalted in Yahweh; My mouth is enlarged over my enemies; Because I rejoice in your salvation.
2
There is none holy as Yahweh; For there is none besides you, Neither is there any rock like our God.
3
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; Don`t let arrogance come out of your mouth; For Yahweh is a God of knowledge, By him actions are weighed.
4
The bows of the mighty men are broken; Those who stumbled are girded with strength.
5
Those who were full have hired out themselves for bread; Those who were hungry have ceased [to hunger]: Yes, the barren has borne seven; She who has many children languishes.
6
Yahweh kills, and makes alive: He brings down to Sheol, and brings up.
7
Yahweh makes poor, and makes rich: He brings low, he also lifts up.
8
He raises up the poor out of the dust, He lifts up the needy from the dunghill, To make them sit with princes, Inherit the throne of glory: For the pillars of the earth are Yahweh`s, He has set the world on them.
9
He will keep the feet of his holy ones; But the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness; For by strength shall no man prevail.
10
Those who strive with Yahweh shall be broken to pieces; Against them will he thunder in the sky: Yahweh will judge the ends of the earth; He will give strength to his king, Exalt the horn of his anointed.
