Then Hannah prayed and said, My heart rejoices in the Lord.

In the Lord, my horn is lifted high. My mouth boasts over my enemies, for I delight in your deliverance. There is no one holy like the Lord. There is no one beside you. There is no rock like our God. Do not keep talking so proudly or let your mouth speak such arrogance. For the Lord is a God who knows. and by him his deeds are a weight.

The bowels of the warriors are broken, but those who stumbled are armed with strength. Those who were full hired themselves out for food, but those who were hungry, hunger no more. She who was barren, is born seven children, but she who has had many sons pines away the Lord brings death and makes alive he brings down to the grave and raises up

the Lord sends poverty and wealth he humbles and he exalts he raises the poor from the dust he lips the needy from the ash heap he seats them with princes and has them inherited inherit a throne of honor. For the foundations of the earth are the Lord's.

Upon them, he has set the world. He will guard the feet of his saints, but the wicked will be silenced in darkness. It is not by strength that one prevails. Those who propose the Lord will be shattered. He will thunder against them from heaven. The Lord will judge the ends of the earth. He will give strength to his king and exalt the horn of his anointed.

Then Alkena went home to Rama, but the boy ministered before the Lord under Eli the priest. Eli's wicked sons. Eli's sons were wicked men. They had no regard for the Lord. Now it was to practice of the priests, with the people that whenever anyone offered a sacrifice, and while the meat was being boiled, the servant of the priest would come with three prolonged fork in his hand.

He would plunge it into the pan or kettle or collagen or pot, and the priest would take for himself whatever, whatever the fork brought up. This is how they treated all the Israelites who came to Shiloh, but even before the fat was burned, the servant of the priest would come and say to the man who was sacrificing, give the priest some meat to roast. He won't accept boiled meat from you, but only raw.

If the man said to him, let the fat be burned up first, and then take whatever you. you want. The servant would then answer, no, hand it over now. If you don't, I'll take it by force. This is the sin of the young men was very great in the Lord's sight, for they were treating the Lord's offering with content. But Samuel was ministering before the Lord, a boy wearing a linen Eiffloid. Each year his mother made him a little robe and took it to him when she went up with her husband to offer the annual sacrifice. Eli would bless Elycana and his wife saying,

May the Lord give you children by this woman to take the place of the one she prayed for and gave to the Lord. Then they would go home. And the Lord was gracious to hand. She conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew up in the presence of the Lord. Now, Eli, who was very old, heard about everything his sons were doing to all Israel and how they slept with a woman who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting. So he said to them, why do you do such things? I hear from all the people about these wicked deeds.

of yours. No, my sons. It is not a good report that I hear spreading among the Lord's people. If a man sins against another man, God may meditate for him. But if a man sins against the Lord, who will intercede for him. His sons, however, do not listen to their father's rebuke, for it was Lord's, for it was the Lord's will to put them to death. And the boy Samuel continued to grow in stature and in favor with the Lord and with men. Prophecy against the house of Eli. Now a man of God came to Eli and said to him, this is what the Lord says. Did I not clearly reveal myself to your father's house?

when they were in Egypt under Pharaoh. I choose your father out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priests, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, and to wear an effluent in my presence. I also gave your father's house all the offerings made with fire by the Israelites. Why do you score in my sacrifice an offering that I prescribed for my dwelling? Why do you honor your sons more than me by fattening yourselves on the choice parts of every offering made by my people Israel? Therefore, the Lord, the God of Israel declares, I promise that your house and your father's house will be ministered before me forever.

But now the Lord declares, far be it from me. those who will honor me, I will honor, but those who despise me will be disdain. The time is coming when I will cut short your strength in the strength of your father's house so that there will not be an old man in your family line, and you will see distress in my dwelling. Although good will be done to you in your family line, there will never be an old man. every one of you that I do not cut off from my altar will be spared only to blind your eyes with tears and to grieve your heart and all your descendants will die in the prime of life and what happens to your two sons. Hoffney, Hoffney and Phineas will be assigned to you. They will both die on the same day. I'll raise up for myself a faithful, priest who will do according to what is in my heart and mind.

I will firmly establish his house. He will, and he will minister before my anointed one always. Then everyone left in your family line will come and bow down before him for a piece of silver and a cross of bread and pled. appoint me to some priestly office so I can have food to eat. That's what we're going to wrap up. We'll put back up with the Lord calls Samuel. Did you know what was Eli's sin?
