1. Hannah prayed out loud,“My heart finds joy in the Lord.My head is lifted to the Lord.My mouth mocks my enemies.I rejoice because you saved ⌊me⌋.

2. There is no one holy like the Lord.There is no one but you, O Lord.There is no Rock like our God.

3. “Do not boast⌊or⌋ let arrogance come out of your mouthbecause the Lord is a God of knowledge,and he weighs ⌊our⌋ actions.

4. “The bows of the warriors are broken,but those who stumble are armed with strength.

5. Those who were well-fed hire themselves out for a piece of bread,but those who were hungry hunger no more.Even the woman who was childless gives birth to seven children,but the mother of many children grieves all alone.

6. “The Lord kills, and he gives life.He makes ⌊people⌋ go down to the grave, and he raises them up ⌊again⌋.
