The Lord lifts up the humble
(1 Samuel 1:1-8)
1
Praise Yahweh! You people who serve Yahweh, praise him! Praise him!
2
Everyone should praise Yahweh now and forever!
3
People who live in the east and people who live in the west, everyone, should praise Yahweh!
4
Yahweh rules over all the nations, and high in the heavens he shows that his glory is very great.
5
There is no one who is like Yahweh, our God, who lives in the highest heaven
6
and looks far down through the heavens and sees the people on the earth.
7
He lifts poor people up so that they no longer sit in the dirt; he lifts needy people up so that they no longer sit on heaps of ashes
8
and causes them to be honored by sitting next to leaders, leaders who rule his own people.
9
He also enables women who have no children to live in their houses as happy as mothers with children. Praise Yahweh!
