1 Samuel 2:6-9 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

6. “יהוה puts to death and makes alive, He brings down to the grave and raises up.

7. “יהוה makes poor and makes rich, He brings low and lifts up.

8. “He raises the poor from the dust, He lifts the needy from the dunghill, to sit with princes, and make them inherit a throne of esteem. For the supports of the earth belong to יהוה, and He has set the world upon them.

9. “He guards the feet of His kind ones, but the wrong are silent in darkness, for man does not become mighty by power.
