Commentary for I Samuel 2:10
יְהוָ֞ה יֵחַ֣תּוּ מריבו [מְרִיבָ֗יו] עלו [עָלָיו֙] בַּשָּׁמַ֣יִם יַרְעֵ֔ם יְהוָ֖ה יָדִ֣ין אַפְסֵי־אָ֑רֶץ וְיִתֶּן־עֹ֣ז לְמַלְכּ֔וֹ וְיָרֵ֖ם קֶ֥רֶן מְשִׁיחֽוֹ׃ (פ)
They that strive with the LORD shall be broken to pieces; Against them will He thunder in heaven; The LORD will judge the ends of the earth; And He will give strength unto His king, And exalt the horn of His anointed.
Rashi on I Samuel
Let Him thunder against them from heaven. The spelling is עָלוּ "they have ascended" meaning that even if they have ascended to the heavens, He thunders upon them and casts them down.

Metzudat David on I Samuel
O Lord, may His/his adversaries be shattered: As a closure to the order of the praises of the Omnipresent, she returned to praying for Shmuel, her son. So she said, "You O Lord, please let the adversaries of my son and the men fighting him be shattered and broken." For she saw with the holy spirit that the Philistines would fight against him, so she prayed that they would be shattered.
