Hasidut untuk 1 Samuel 1:11

וַתִּדֹּ֨ר נֶ֜דֶר וַתֹּאמַ֗ר יְהוָ֨ה צְבָא֜וֹת אִם־רָאֹ֥ה תִרְאֶ֣ה ׀ בָּעֳנִ֣י אֲמָתֶ֗ךָ וּזְכַרְתַּ֙נִי֙ וְלֹֽא־תִשְׁכַּ֣ח אֶת־אֲמָתֶ֔ךָ וְנָתַתָּ֥ה לַאֲמָתְךָ֖ זֶ֣רַע אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וּנְתַתִּ֤יו לַֽיהוָה֙ כָּל־יְמֵ֣י חַיָּ֔יו וּמוֹרָ֖ה לֹא־יַעֲלֶ֥ה עַל־רֹאשֽׁוֹ׃

Lalu Hana bernazar, katanya: “Ya Yang Mahakekal semesta alam, jika Engkau sungguh-sungguh memperhatikan sengsara hamba-Mu ini, mengingat aku, dan tidak melupakan hamba-Mu ini, tetapi memberikan kepada hamba-Mu ini keturunan laki-laki, maka aku akan menyerahkannya kepada Yang Mahakekal seumur hidupnya, dan pisau cukur tidak akan menyentuh kepalanya.”

And according to this, the aspect of trust is only relevant to people. For they have choice, such that they deserve reward and punishment, and the Holy One, blessed be He, promised to repay a goodly reward to those who do His will, as it is explained in the holy Torah. But since reward and punishment are irrelevant to the higher beings, since they do not have choice, they do not have the aspect of trust, but rather protection. And this is [the meaning of] that which [Hannah] said, the Lord of hosts. This means that from all the myriad hosts that You created in Your world (and as the sages, may their memory be blessed, expounded (Berakhot 31b) about the hosts that Hannah mentioned [I Samuel 1:11]), fortunate is man. And the reason is that he trusts in You. But with the higher creatures, they do not have the aspect of trust, but rather protection, as mentioned. And what can be taken from this is that trust is irrelevant to those who do not have volitional good deeds with total volition, and they rather only have protection, such that they find their protection with God. But trust is relevant to those who do have volitional good deeds with total volition. And these are the mighty-hearted who are far from charity (Isaiah 46:12), about whom the sages, may their memory be blessed expounded (Berakhot 17b:2). And in my opinion, it is very sweet that the mighty-heart are those with choice (as those who do not have choice do not have a mighty heart that produces mightiness of the heart, since they do not have choice and their hearts are not in their control [see Bereishit Rabbah 34:10], and understand [this]). And according to this, it would come out very sweet — that since they have choice and willpower, they are hence far from [needing] charity. That means "they are sustained by force [of their deeds]," as the rabbis, may their memory be blessed, said.
