1 Samuel 2:1-3

Contemporary English Version

2 ¹^(A) Hannah prayed:

You make me strong
and happy, Lord.
You rescued me.
Now I can be glad
and laugh at my enemies.

²No other god^[a] is like you.
And with you we are safer
    than on a high mountain.^[b]
³I can tell those proud people,
    “Stop your boasting!
Nothing is hidden from the Lord,
    and he judges what we do.”
