Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
2 And Channah davened, and said, My lev rejoiceth in Hashem, mine keren is exalted in Hashem; my mouth is opened wide over mine oyevim; because I rejoice with simchah in Thy Yeshuah (Salvation).
2 There is none kadosh like Hashem; for there is none besides Thee; neither is there any Tzur like Eloheinu.
3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not atak (insolence) come out of your mouth; for Hashem is El De’ot (a G-d -who intensively knows), and by Him alilot (actions) are weighed.
4 Keshet gibborim are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with chayil (strength).
5 They that were full have hired out themselves for lechem; and they that were hungry are such no more; so that the barren hath born shivah; and she that hath rabbat banim withers in grief.
6 Hashem bringeth mot, and maketh chayyim; He bringeth down to Sheol, and raiseth up.
7 Hashem maketh poor, and bringeth oisher; He bringeth low, and lifteth up.
8 He raiseth up the dal (poor) out of the aphar (dust), and lifteth up the evyon (needy) from the dunghill, to seat them among nedivim (nobles), and to make them inherit the kisse kavod; for the pillars of the earth belong to Hashem, and He hath set the tevel (world) upon them.
9 He is shomer over the feet of His chasidim, and the resha’im shall be silenced in choshech; for by ko’ach shall no ish prevail.
10 Those striving against Hashem shall be shattered; out of Shomayim shall He thunder upon him [the contentious]; Hashem shall judge the afsei eretz (ends of the earth); and He shall give oz (strength) unto His Melech, and exalt the keren (horn, power) of His Moshiach.
2 These are the toldot Ya’akov. Yosef, being seventeen years old, was ro’eh with his achim to the tzon; now the na’ar was with the bnei Bilhah, and with the bnei Zilpah, the ne’shei Aviv (the wives of his father); and Yosef brought unto Avihem (their father) dibbatam ra’ah (a bad, evil report of them).
3 Now Yisroel loved Yosef more than all his children, because he was the ben zekunim (the son of his old age); and he made him a kesones passim (ketonet [tunic] reaching to palms and soles, [see Messianic significance Yn 19:23 OJBC]).
4 And when his achim saw that Avihem loved him more than all his achim, they hated him, and could not speak with shalom unto him.
5 And Yosef dreamed a chalom (dream [see Mt 2:22 OJBC]), and he told it to his achim; and they hated him yet the more.
6 And he said unto them, Hear, now, this chalom which I have dreamed:
7 For, hinei, we were binding alummim (sheaves of wheat) out in the sadeh, and, hinei, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, hinei, your alummot (sheaves of wheat) gathered around it, and bowed down to my sheaf.
8 And his achim said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? Or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his chalomot (dreams), and for his devarim.
9 And he dreamed yet another chalom, and told it his achim, and said, Hinei, I have dreamed a chalom more; and, hinei, the shemesh and the yarei’ach and the eleven kokhavim bowed down to me.
10 And he told it to Aviv, and to his achim: and Aviv rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this chalom that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and Immecha and Achecha indeed come to bow down ourselves to the ground before thee?
11 And his achim had kina (jealousy, envy) toward him; but Aviv was shomer over the saying.
1 This is the sefer toldot of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Ben Dovid, Ben Avraham.
2 Avraham, then Yitzchak, Yaakov, Yehudah and his brothers;
3 then, through Yehudah, Peretz and Zerach by Tamar; then Chetzron, Ram;
4 then Amminadav, Nachshon, Salmon;
5 then Boaz by Rachav; then Oved by Ruth, then Yishai;
6 then Yishai fathered Dovid HaMelech; then Shlomo by the wife of Uriyah;
7 then Rechavam, Aviyah, Asa,
8 then Yehoshafat, Yoram, Uziyahu;
9 then Yotam, Achaz, Chizkiyahu,
10 then Mnasheh, Amon, Yoshiyahu,
11 then Ykhanyahu and his achim from the days of the Golus in Babylon.
12 After Ykhanyahu, then Shaltiel, then Zrubavel,
13 then Avichud, then Elyakim, then Azur;
14 then Tzadok, then Yakhin, then Elichud;

16 Yaakov fathered Yosef, the baal (husband) of Miryam, from whom was born Yehoshua, who is called Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach. [Yochanan 1:49]
17 So then, there were arbaa asar (fourteen) dorot (generations) from Avraham to Dovid [T.N. Dovid= DVD in Hebrew = [d = 4, v = 6, d = 4] = (4 + 6 + 4 = 14)], and there were arbaa asar dorot from Dovid to the Golus in Babylon, and there were arbaa asar dorot from the Golus in Babylon to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
