The Lord lifts up the humble
(1 Samuel 1:1-8)
1
Praise YAH! Praise, you servants of YHWH. Praise the Name of YHWH.
2
The Name of YHWH is blessed, || From now on, and for all time.
3
From the rising of the sun to its going in, || The Name of YHWH [is] praised.
4
YHWH [is] high above all nations, || His glory [is] above the heavens.
5
Who [is] as our God YHWH, || He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
6
He is humbling [Himself] to look || On the heavens and on the earth.
7
He is raising up the poor from the dust, || He exalts the needy from a dunghill.
8
To cause [them] to sit with princes, || With the princes of His people.
9
Causing the barren one of the house to sit, || A joyful mother of sons; praise YAH!
