if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid,

then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life,

Therefore also I have lent him to the LORD;
as long as he liveth he shall be lent to the LORD.

for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S,
and he hath set the world upon them.
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces;
out of heaven shall he thunder upon them:
the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth;
and he shall give strength unto his king,
and exalt the horn of his anointed.
