The Lord lifts up the humble

(1 Samuel 1:1-8)
1
Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.
2
Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.
3
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.
4
The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.
5
Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:
6
And looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?
7
Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:
8
That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.
9
Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.
