Psalm 107:41
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
41 While he released the poor man from affliction,
and increased their families like flocks.(A)
1 Samuel 2:7-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 The Lord makes poor and makes rich,
humbles, and also exalts.
8 He raises the needy from the dust;
from the ash heap lifts up the poor,
To seat them with nobles
and make a glorious throne their heritage.
“For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,
and he has set the world upon them.(A)
