1 Samuel 2:1-2
New Catholic Bible

Chapter 2

1 [a]Then Hannah prayed and said,

“My heart rejoices in the Lord,
    my horn is lifted high in the Lord.
My mouth boasts over my enemies,
    for I rejoice in my salvation.
2 There is no holy one like the Lord,
    there is none beside you,
nor is there a rock like our God.
