1 Samuel 2:7-9

The Voice

⁷     The Eternal One makes both poor and rich;
        some He humbles, and others He honors.
⁸     He lifts the poor up out of the dust,
        the needy from the trash heap.
    He raises them to sit with princes
        and seats them on a glorious throne.
    For the pillars of the earth are the Eternal One’s,
        and on them, He has set the world.
