The Lord lifts up the humble
(1 Samuel 1:1-8)
1
Praise Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh; praise the name of Yahweh.
2
Blessed be the name of Yahweh, both now and forevermore.
3
From the rising of the sun to its setting, Yahweh’s name should be praised.
4
Yahweh is exalted above all nations, and his glory reaches above the skies.
5
Who is like Yahweh our God, who has his seat on high,
6
who looks down at the sky and at the earth?
7
He raises up the poor out of the dirt and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
8
so that he may seat him with princes, with the princes of his people.
9
He gives a home to the barren woman of the house, he makes her a joyful mother of children. Praise Yahweh!
