1 Samuel 2 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Then Hannah ^H2584 prayed ^H6419 and said ^H559,

“My heart ^H3820 exults ^H5970 in Yahweh ^H3068;

My [fn]horn ^H7161 is exalted ^H7311 in Yahweh ^H3068;

My mouth ^H6310 [fn]speaks ^H7337 boldly ^H7337 against ^H5921 my enemies ^H340,

Because ^H3588 I am glad ^H8055 in Your salvation ^H3444.

“There ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 holy ^H6918 like Yahweh ^H3068;

Indeed ^H3588, there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 besides ^H1115 You,

Nor ^H369 is ^H369 there ^H369 any rock ^H6697 like our God ^H430.

“Do not ^H408 multiply ^H7235 speaking ^H1696 so very ^H1364 proudly ^H1364;

Let arrogance ^H6277 not come ^H3318 out ^H3318 of your mouth ^H6310;

For Yahweh ^H3068 is a God ^H410 of knowledge ^H1844,

And with Him actions ^H5949 are weighed ^H8505.

“The bows ^H7198 of the mighty ^H1368 are shattered ^H2844,

But those who stumble ^H3782 gird ^H247 on ^H247 strength ^H2428.

“Those who were full ^H7649 hire ^H7936 themselves out ^H7936 for bread ^H3899,

But those who were hungry ^H7457 cease ^H2308 to hunger.

Even ^H5704 the barren ^H6135 gives ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to seven ^H7651,

But she who has many ^H7227 children ^H1121 languishes ^H535.

“Yahweh ^H3068 puts ^H4191 to death ^H4191 and makes ^H2421 alive ^H2421;

He brings ^H3381 down ^H3381 to Sheol ^H7585 and raises ^H5927 up ^H5927.

“Yahweh ^H3068 makes ^H3423 poor ^H3423 and rich ^H6238;

He brings ^H8213 low ^H8213; He also ^H637 exalts ^H7311.

“He raises ^H6965 the poor ^H1800 from the dust ^H6083;

He exalts ^H7311 the needy ^H34 from the ash ^H830 heap ^H6083

To make them sit ^H3427 with nobles ^H5081,

And inherit ^H5157 a seat ^H3678 of glory ^H3519;

For the pillars ^H4690 of the earth ^H776 are Yahweh’s ^H3068,

And He set ^H7896 the world ^H8398 on them.

“He keeps ^H8104 the feet ^H7272 of His holy ^H2623 ones ^H2623,

But the wicked ^H7563 ones ^H7563 are ^H1826 silenced ^H1826 in darkness ^H2822,

For not by power ^H3581 shall a man ^H376 prevail ^H1396.

“Those who contend ^H7378 with Yahweh ^H3068 will be dismayed ^H2865;

Against ^H5921 them He will thunder ^H7481 in the heavens ^H8064;

Yahweh ^H3068 will render ^H1777 justice ^H1777 to the ends ^H657 of the earth ^H776,

And He will give ^H5414 strength ^H5797 to His king ^H4428,

And He will exalt ^H7311 the [fn]horn ^H7161 of His anointed ^H4899.”

Then Elkanah ^H511 went ^H1980 to his home ^H1004 at Ramah ^H7414. But the young ^H5288 boy ^H5288 ministered ^H8334 to Yahweh ^H3068 before ^H6440 Eli ^H5941 the priest ^H3548.

Now the sons ^H1121 of Eli ^H5941 were [fn]vile ^H1100 men ^H1121; they did not know ^H3045 Yahweh ^H3068.

Now Samuel ^H8050 was ministering ^H8334 before ^H6440 Yahweh ^H3068, as a [fn]young ^H5288 boy ^H5288 girded ^H2296 with a linen ^H906 ephod ^H646.

Yahweh ^H3068 indeed visited ^H6485 Hannah ^H2584; and she conceived ^H2029 and gave ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to three ^H7969 sons ^H1121 and two ^H8147 daughters ^H1323. And the young ^H5288 boy ^H5288 Samuel ^H8050 grew ^H1431 before ^H5973 Yahweh ^H3068.

Now Eli ^H5941 was ^H2204 very ^H3966 old ^H2204; and he heard ^H8085 all ^H3605 that his sons ^H1121 were doing ^H6213 to all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478, and how ^H854 H834 they lay ^H7901 with the women ^H802 who served ^H6633 at the doorway ^H6607 of the tent ^H168 of meeting ^H4150.

Now the young ^H5288 boy ^H5288 Samuel ^H8050 [fn]was growing ^H1980 H1432 in stature ^H1432 and in favor ^H2896 both ^H1571 with Yahweh ^H3068 and with men ^H376.

Then a man ^H376 of God ^H430 came ^H935 to Eli ^H5941 and said ^H559 to him, “Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068, ‘Did I not indeed ^H1540 reveal ^H1540 Myself to the house ^H1004 of your father ^H1 when they were in Egypt ^H4714, enslaved to Pharaoh’s ^H6547 house ^H1004?
