2:1And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart exulteth in Jehovah, my horn is lifted up in Jehovah; my mouth is opened wide over mine enemies; for I rejoice in thy salvation.

2:2There is none holy as Jehovah, for there is none beside thee, neither is there any rock like our God.

2:3Do not multiply your words of pride, let not vain-glory come out of your mouth; For Jehovah is a *God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.

2:4The bow of the mighty is broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.

2:5They that were full have hired themselves out for bread; and the hungry are so no more: Even the barren beareth seven, and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.

2:6Jehovah killeth, and maketh alive; he bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up.

2:7Jehovah maketh poor, and maketh rich, he bringeth low, also he lifteth up:

2:8He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy, To set him among nobles; and he maketh them inherit a throne of glory; For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah's, and he hath set the world upon them.

2:9He keepeth the feet of his saints, but the wicked are silenced in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.

2:10They that strive with Jehovah shall be broken to pieces; in the heavens will he thunder upon them. Jehovah will judge the ends of the earth; and he will give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
