1 Samuel 2:3-5

GOD’S WORD Translation

³ “Do not boast
⌞or⌟ let arrogance come out of your mouth
because the Lord is a God of knowledge,
and he weighs ⌞our⌟ actions.

⁴ “The bows of the warriors are broken,
but those who stumble are armed with strength.
⁵ Those who were well-fed hire themselves out for a piece of bread,
but those who were hungry hunger no more.
Even the woman who was childless gives birth to seven children,
but the mother of many children grieves all alone.
