“Talk no more so very proudly;
(A)Let no arrogance come from your mouth,
For the Lord is the God of (B)knowledge;
And by Him actions are weighed.

“The(C) bows of the mighty men are broken,
And those who stumbled are girded with strength.
Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,
And the hungry have ceased to hunger.
Even (D)the barren has borne seven,
And (E)she who has many children has become feeble.
