Let´s Pray The Liturgy of The Hours 6th Wednesday of Easter Lauds Morning Prayer

Hebrews 13:7-9   Remember your leaders, who preached the word of God to you, and as you reflect on the outcome of their lives, imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same today as he was yesterday and will be forever. Do not let yourselves be led astray by all sorts of strange doctrines.

1 Samuel 2

The song of Hannah, mother of Samuel

The Lord gives death and he gives life. Alleluia.

My heart rejoices in the Lord,

my strength is raised up in the name of my God.

I cry out in triumph over my enemies

as I rejoice in your deliverance.

No one is like the Lord, for he is holy;

no-one is like our God, for he is strong.

Do not pile boasting upon boasting:

keep proud words far from your mouth,

for the Lord is the God of all knowledge

and the judge of all actions.

The bow of the mighty is broken,

and the weak are clothed in strength.

Those who fed well must hire themselves out, for bread;

but the hungry are no longer hungry.

The barren woman has given birth to many;

but she who had many sons is left desolate.

The Lord brings death and brings life;

he leads them down to the underworld and rescues them from it.

The Lord makes poor and makes rich;

he lays low and raises up.

He lifts the needy from the dust and the poor from the dunghill

to sit among princes

to sit on the throne of glory.

To the Lord belong the poles of the earth;

from them, he has suspended the world.

He will keep safe the feet of his chosen,

but the impious will be silent in the darkness

It is not by his own strength that a man becomes strong.

The Lord grinds down his enemies:

he will thunder on them from the heavens.

The Lord will judge the ends of the earth,

give dominion to his king,

and raise up the standard of his anointed one.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son

and to the Holy Spirit,

as it was in the beginning,

is now, and ever shall be,

world without end.

Amen.
