1 Samuel 2:3-5

The Voice

³     Stop talking so proudly,
        and don’t let such arrogance flow from your lips,
    For the Eternal One is a True God who knows,
        and He weighs the actions He sees.
⁴     The bows of the mighty crack in two,
        but the feeble are given new strength.
⁵     Those who were full have had to work hard so they can eat,
        but those who were starving have become fat with rich food.
    The one who was infertile has borne seven children,
        while the one who bore many sits alone in sadness.
