1. And Channah davened, and said, My lev rejoiceth in Hashem, mine keren is exalted in Hashem; my mouth is opened wide over mine oyevim; because I rejoice with simchah in Thy Yeshuah (Salvation).
2. There is none kadosh like Hashem; for there is none besides Thee; neither is there any Tzur like Eloheinu.
3. Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not atak (insolence) come out of your mouth; for Hashem is El De'ot (a G-d -who intensively knows), and by Him alilot (actions) are weighed.
4. Keshet gibborim are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with chayil (strength).
5. They that were full have hired out themselves for lechem; and they that were hungry are such no more; so that the barren hath born shivah; and she that hath rabbat banim withers in grief.
6. Hashem bringeth mot, and maketh chayyim; He bringeth down to Sheol, and raiseth up.
7. Hashem maketh poor, and bringeth oisher; He bringeth low, and lifteth up.
8. He raiseth up the dal (poor) out of the aphar (dust), and lifteth up the evyon (needy) from the dunghill, to seat them among nedivim (nobles), and to make them inherit the kisse kavod; for the pillars of the earth belong to Hashem, and He hath set the tevel (world) upon them.
