1 Samuel 2:3 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Talk no more Thou Peninnah, boast no more of thy numerous offspring, and speak no more insolently and scornfully of me. She speaks of her in the plural number, because she would not expose her name to censure. A God of knowledge He knoweth thy heart, and all that pride, and envy, and contempt of me, which thy own conscience knows: and all thy perverse carriage toward me. By him actions are weighed That is, he trieth all men's thoughts and actions, (for the Hebrew word signifies both,) as a just judge, to give to every one according to his works.

1 Samuel 2:3

3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancya come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
