3rd.: Hannah’s Eloquent Thanks - Entirety
Below Hannah's prayer is given in its entirety.
In the coming days, we shall discuss it.
“My heart rejoices in the Lord. Mine horn is exalted in the Lord.
My mouth is enlarged over mine enemies, because I rejoice in thy salvation.
There is none holy as the Lord, for there is none beside thee. Neither is there any rock like our God.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly. Let not arrogancy come out of your mouth,
for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
The bows of the mighty are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
They that were full have hired themselves for bread. And they that were hungry ceased,
so that the barren has borne seven, and she that has many children waxed 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 up the poor out of the dust,
and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes,
and to 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 keep the feet of his saints,
and the wicked shall be silent in darkness, for by strength shall no man prevail.
The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces. Out of heaven shall he thunder upon them.
The Lord shall judge the ends of the earth, and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.”
(1st Sam. 2:1-10).
