1 Samuel 2:7-9

American Standard Version

⁷ Jehovah maketh poor, and maketh rich:
He bringeth low, he also lifteth up.
⁸ He raiseth up the poor out of the dust,
He lifteth up the needy from the dunghill,
To make them sit with princes,
And inherit the throne of glory:
For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah’s,
And he hath set the world upon them.
⁹ He will keep the feet of his ^[a]holy ones;
But the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness;
For by strength shall no man prevail.
