The Lord lifts up the humble

(1 Samuel 1:1-8)
1
Alleluia. Praise the Lord, children. Praise the name of the Lord.
2
Blessed is the name of the Lord, from this time forward and even forever.
3
From the rising of the sun, even to its setting, praiseworthy is the name of the Lord.
4
The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory is high above the heavens.
5
Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high,
6
and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth?
7
He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth,
8
so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people.
9
He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons.
