Psalm 113

113 Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.

Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.

Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.

Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;

Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,

To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.

He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!

Psalm 122

A Song of degrees. Of David.

122 I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.

Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,

Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.

For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

Peace be within thy bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.

For my brethren and companions' sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!

Because of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.

1 Samuel 1:20-28

20 And it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bore a son, and called his name Samuel, [saying,] Because I have asked him of Jehovah.

21 And Elkanah her husband, and all his house, went up to sacrifice to Jehovah the yearly sacrifice and his vow.

22 But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, [I will wait] until the child is weaned; then will I bring him, that he may appear before Jehovah, and there abide for ever.

23 And Elkanah her husband said to her, Do what is good in thy sight: abide until thou hast weaned him; only, may Jehovah fulfil his word. And the woman abode, and gave her son suck until she weaned him.

24 And she took him up with her when she had weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a flask of wine, and brought him to the house of Jehovah to Shiloh; and the boy was young.

25 And they slaughtered the bullock, and brought the boy to Eli.

26 And she said, Oh my lord, [as] thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here to pray to Jehovah.

27 For this boy I prayed; and Jehovah has granted me my petition which I asked of him.

28 And also I have lent him to Jehovah: all the days that he lives, he is lent to Jehovah. And he worshipped Jehovah there.

Romans 8:14-21

14 for as many as are led by [the] Spirit of God, *these* are sons of God.

15 For ye have not received a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye have received a spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

16 The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are children of God.

17 And if children, heirs also: heirs of God, and Christ's joint heirs; if indeed we suffer with [him], that we may also be glorified with [him].

18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy [to be compared] with the coming glory to be revealed to us.

19 For the anxious looking out of the creature expects the revelation of the sons of God:

20 for the creature has been made subject to vanity, not of its will, but by reason of him who has subjected [the same], in hope

21 that the creature itself also shall be set free from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
