Tuesday, January 9 : 1st book of Samuel 2,1.4-5.6-7.8abcd.
My heart exults in the LORD, my horn is exalted in my God. I have swallowed up my enemies; I rejoice in my victory. The bows of the mighty are broken, while the tottering gird on strength.
The well-fed hire themselves out for bread, while the hungry batten on spoil. The barren wife bears seven sons, while the mother of many languishes. The LORD puts to death and gives life; He casts down to the nether world; He raises up again.
The LORD makes poor and makes rich, He humbles, he also exalts. He raises the needy from the dust;
from the dung heap he lifts up the poor,
to seat them with nobles
and make a glorious throne their heritage.
