1 Samuel 2:3-6 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

3. Speak boastfully no longer,Do not let arrogance issue from your mouths.For an all-knowing God is the Lord,a God who weighs actions.

4. “The bows of the mighty are broken,while the tottering gird on strength.

5. The well-fed hire themselves out for bread,while the hungry no longer have to toil.The barren wife bears seven sons,while the mother of many languishes.

6. “The Lord puts to death and gives life,casts down to Sheol and brings up again.
